26 My son, give me your heart
and let your eyes delight in my ways,
27 for an adulterous woman is a deep pit,
and a wayward wife is a narrow well.
28 Like a bandit she lies in wait
and multiplies the unfaithful among men.
Proverbs Club Commentary
Adultery is condemned in the Old Covenant And The New.
Preserve your family.
Be faithful.
13 The sluggard says, “There’s a lion outside!
I’ll be killed in the public square!”
Proverbs Club Commentary
Any excuse is better than none (or so they say).
But admitting the truth could change your path.
13 Whoever shuts their ears to the cry of the poor
will also cry out and not be answered.
Proverbs Club Commentary
You can shut your breathing.
You can shut your eyes.
You can shut your mouth.
But you cannot shut your ears.
You will be ignored when you need help
if you ignore the plight of the poor.
Sleep Or Grow Rich
Proverbs 20:13 (NIV)
13 Do not love sleep or you will grow poor;
stay awake and you will have food to spare.
Proverbs Club Commentary
Sleep less.
Work more.
Show a profit.
13 A foolish child is a father’s ruin,
and a quarrelsome wife is like
the constant dripping of a leaky roof.
Proverbs Club Commentary
A brat or a nag will destroy a family.
Their torment must not be allowed to linger.
