Nice try but nor be so dem dey take analyse proverbs oh. Nor be plain meaning from d syntactic structure. You get to dig deep and peruse am. For instance now, if I tell you sey "Pikin wey dem carry for back nor dey know sey road far" E nor mean sey dem actually carry pikin for back dey go somewhere but na true if dem still carry pikin for back. Wetin dat particular proverb mean be sey persin wey dem dey help do something nor dey know sey e dey hard. Proverbs get application, nor be d regular talk and just leave am there kind of thing.

Yes all are being classified as one, Just as we do say go to school but without knowing going to school also connotes you chosing a career. You don't just go to school without you having to chose a course to study. So it's to my parables and meaning, Prayers signifies all things including giving in fact given is the most important things that can easily breaks one out from every hardship be it spiritual or physical we need to release our hands to sow seed in the lives of those we felts we are better of or to those whom we felts are more anointed to attracts a speedy and heavenly blessings from them. Abeg make una no vex say I no flow with the OT but I go try as much possible to dey post with the OT wey we get here.
