Commentary on Proverbs 24:3

Theological / Devotional

Through wisdom. Nothing solid is built up by the foolishness of envying men of wickedness (v. 1). Only by the true wisdom that fears God and keeps His commandments can a family be blessed and protected. Robbery is no way to gain permanent wealth. Knowledge wisely used ensures a life of real pleasure.
