Commentary on Proverbs 11:18

Theological / Devotional

A deceitful work. The wicked man thinks that he is going to gain a worth-while return for his evil labors, but finds that his reward is very different (see ch. 1:10-19; see also on v. 17). The righteous man sows righteousness and reaps a harvest that is as sure as eternity (Gal. 6:8).
