Commentary on Proverbs 22:28

Theological / Devotional

Ancient landmark. Land was marked out by little piles of stones or by larger pillars where these were available. Without accurate surveying methods it was easy to move a landmark and defy the one defrauded to prove that it had been moved. That such removal was a common offense may be judged from the enactments against it (Deut. 19:14; 27:17; cf. Job 24:2; Prov. 15:25).
