Book before Proverbs crossword clue
99 Down · WSJ Crossword, June 13, 2026 · 6 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Book before Proverbs” is PSALMS. It appears as 99 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of June 13, 2026, a Saturday puzzle titled “Her Remixes” by Alex Bajcz, and it fills 6 squares running top to bottom from row 16, column 1 of the 21×21 grid.
A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with P and ends with S, and contains 1 vowel and 5 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. This weekend puzzle uses the largest grid of the week, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
