but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

11 Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.
12 She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.
Proverbs Club Commentary
I have known some less than satisfactory husbands.
Wives are far more likely to be noble,
especially when they are mothers.

24 “Four things on earth are small,
yet they are extremely wise:
25 Ants are creatures of little strength,
yet they store up their food in the summer;
26 hyraxes are creatures of little power,
yet they make their home in the crags;
27 locusts have no king,
yet they advance together in ranks;
28 a lizard can be caught with the hand,
yet it is found in kings’ palaces.
Proverbs Club Commentary
Even small creatures without an advanced brain
act wisely, extremely wisely.
Shouldn’t we? Even instinctively?
