English summary: For the first time, this commentary brings together all aspects relevant to the interpretation of this late text of the Old Testament: Textual criticism, philological and literary analysis; its dual historical context, with its connection to the Greek-Hellenistic environment on the one hand, and to the biblical tradition on the other; and finally, the very innovative theology of the Book of Wisdom. Aspects of its history of reception and hermeneutic questions round off the commentary. German description: Erstmals fuhrt der vorliegende Kommentar alle Aspekte zusammen, die fur die Interpretation dieser Spatschrift des Alten Testaments relevant sind: Textkritik, philologische und literarische Analyse; der zweifache historische Kontext mit der Verbindung zur griechisch-hellenistischen Umwelt einerseits und zur biblischen Tradition andererseits; schliesslich die – sehr innovative – Theologie des Buchs der Weisheit. Aspekte der Rezeptionsgeschichte und hermeneutische Fragen runden die Kommentierung ab.
