I agree they are both talking about sinful times, but I think where I am coming from is that it depends on where a person is as to which one may resonate more with someone. Just in how they are worded I think changes how we see things. If someone is wanting to see God at work per say they would want to watch his work through the prophets. If someone is wanting to work through who God is and has questions or uncertainties, I think some of the wording in the wisdom may suit better. There is more room for questioning and thought where the prophetic books are more "straight forward". If that helps with where I was trying to come from.
