The wisdom literature of the Bible was cherished in ancient Israel but was not exclusive to the people of God. The inspired writers borrowed from their neighbors in order to provide a religious humanism that is valid to this day. The sacred books ask hard questions of whether or not life has any meaning and practical answers of how to live the life we have been given well.
