The wisdom books in your list are: Ecclesiastes, Proverbs, and Job.

Briefly:
- Proverbs: collections of practical sayings and instructions for living.
- Job: philosophical/theological treatment of suffering and divine justice.
- Ecclesiastes: reflections on meaning, vanity, and the good life.

The others (Judges, Lamentations, Obadiah, Ruth) are narrative, prophetic, or lament genres, not classified as wisdom literature.
