Creative Proverbs from Palestinian*

Creative Proverbs from the... *Palestinian Culture** (* denotes a culture rather than a country)
Background: Palestinian religious beliefs between 3000 and 300 BC are usually defined by the languages of those who practiced them: e.g., Amorite, Hurrian, Ugaritic, Phoenician, Aramaic, and Moabite. Knowledge of the religions of these groups is very uneven. Only from the city-state of Ugarit (14th-13th centuries BC) is there a wide range of religious expression.

Proverbs from the Palestinian* Culture

	You will not dare mistreat the face you see in the morning.
	Away from the eye, away from the mind.
	IF only I were a bird! Ah, but eating caterpillars?
	Sell what you have bought while the dust is still on your shoes.
	Whatever is written on the forehead is always seen.
