Governmental Wrath
Proverbs 20:2

A king’s wrath strikes terror
like the roar of a lion;
those who anger him forfeit their lives.

PCdc Commentary

Reminiscent of Romans 13:4
For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good.
But if you do wrong, be afraid,
for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason.
They are God’s servants,
agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer.

A wise person must count the cost before angering the authorities.
Sometimes, you get to pick the hill you’re gonna die on.

Winers And Beerers
Proverbs 20:1

Wine is a mocker and beer a brawler;
whoever is led astray by them is not wise.

PCdc Commentary

Wine makes you a whiner.
Beer makes you beerigerent.
Ok, it’s belligerent, but
“Beer makes you a boxer” is a poor second choice.

The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters,
but one who has insight draws them out.

PCdc Commentary

A person of insight can draw out the purposes of the heart.
Does this mean draw them out of his own heart or someone else’s heart or both?
