“A discerning person keeps wisdom in view,
but a fool’s eyes wander to the ends of the earth.”
Proverbs 17:24
but a fool’s eyes wander to the ends of the earth.”
Proverbs 17:24
In Proverbs 17, Solomon reveals characteristics of wisdom, justice and family life.
He shows the contrast between the wise and fools, good and evil and emphasises
in all things it is the Lord that tests the heart. Relationships based in love
overlook an offense and bond a friendship.
In Proverbs 17:24, wisdom is within the sight and reach of everyone to make everything clearer and able to be understood. Wisdom is the mark aimed for, the rule which orders each step and continually directs and assists daily living. The wise never loses sight of truth and keeps the word of God continually in view, plus shows his common sense by a meek and quiet spirit and few words!
