Commentary on Proverbs 15:2

Theological / Devotional

Useth knowledge aright. The last 150 years have seen a tremendous increase in knowledge, and the rate of acquisition of facts seems to have increased constantly throughout that time. Yet with all the knowledge men have gained, they are not thereby wiser than their ancestors. Having rejected the fear of the Lord, they have not even the beginning of true wisdom (ch. 9:10), and are driven by their added knowledge toward a dreadful future.
