If you look at Proverbs 6:16 and Proverbs 30:18, they are written in a certain format:

"There are six things the LORD hates--no, seven things he detests"

 

"There are three things that are too amazing for me, four that I do not understand"

Why was this written this way? Is it some technique of Hebrew poems?
