Narrow Paths Of The Rich And Poor – Proverbs 28:6

6) Better the poor whose walk is blameless
than the rich whose ways are perverse.

Proverbs Club Commentary

Poor is a common Narrow Path with many everyday survival issues.
Rich is a rare Narrow Path with many distractions, temptations, and pitfalls.

Rich and poor have this in common:
The Lord is the Maker of them all.
Proverbs 22:2 (NIV)

8) Like tying a stone in a sling
is the giving of honor to a fool.

Proverbs Club Commentary

Fools deserve no honor because their deeds are absurd.
Satan worshipers and the godless deserve no honor
because their very paths are dishonorable.

16) If you find honey, eat just enough—
too much of it, and you will vomit.

Voracity is to be avoided.
It does not speak well of you.
