Abstract

One of the important pieces of advice from the book of Proverbs is about how to manage anger. Uncontrolled anger often brings bad things to a person. The word anger itself appears 19 times in this book. Two main questions are asked in this study: how does Proverbs view anger? How to manage anger wisely in humans according to Proverbs? By using a topical approach in the Book of Proverbs, two main things are concluded. First, anger is the root of stupidity and the enemy of wisdom. Anger will always have a bad impact and destroy peace among fellow human beings. Second, Proverbs also provides wise advice in managing anger. A calm and careful attitude is needed when someone is dealing with anger. Managing anger is basically the same as managing good emotions. A patient and wise attitude can extinguish the anger of others. As a practical application, God's people today must really be able to manage anger because uncontrolled anger will only bring harm.
