Proverbs 3:13-18

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public Domain

The teacher here enters upon the last part of this discourse. In doing so, he reverts to his main subject, which is Wisdom, or the fear of the Lord (see Proverbs 3:7 and Proverbs 1:7), and pronounces a panegyric upon her, comparing her, as in Job 28:1-28; with treasures whose value she exceeds, and showing wherein that value consists, viz.

in the gifts which she confers on man.
