Wisdom 3-5

Do good to get good. Otherwise, bad things will happen. When the final judgment comes, we may be surprised at who makes it. Arrogance won't work get you any long-lasting benefits.

Addendum to yesterday's reading: As far as I can remember, only Enoch and Elijah went to heaven. The afterlife just wasn't an Old Testament concept--see Ecclesiastes, for example. Yet, here in the Apocrypha, the ways to get in and be kept out of heaven are important.
