Commentary on Proverbs 29:3

Theological / Devotional

Lovetht wisdom. What father can fail to be pleased when his son shows a love for wisdom? Some might complain at overmuch learning, but wisdom has no enemies among good men. A son who turns to vice wastes all that he has. He sacrifices health and strength to late hours and riotous conduct. Wisdom and knowledge vanish under the influence of drink (see Luke 15:13).
