In this study I discuss verses 20 through 24:
vs.20- words spoken wisely bring satisfaction like a good meal
vs.21- our tongue can build or destroy others, and if you like to talk a lot (like me), there will be consequences (good or bad) for what you say
vs.22- when a man finds a wife(a woman trained to be a wife), he finds something precious, and this is favor from God.
vs.23- the poor plead while the rich answer without care for others
vs.24- just cause one has many "friends" does not mean they have your best interest in mind because true friends are closer than family at times.
