Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Proverbs 11:28

He that trusteth in his riches, as his chief portion, and felicity, and ground of safety, shall fall, as a withered leaf, by comparing this clause with the latter. The righteous, who maketh God alone, and not riches, his trust, shall flourish as a branch, to wit, a green and flourishing branch. read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Proverbs 11:29

He that troubleth his own house; he who bringeth trouble and misery upon himself and children, either, 1. By carelessness, slothfulness, improvidence, prodigality, or any wickedness, whereby he consumeth his estate. So this troubling of his house may be opposed to a man’s building of his house, Jeremiah 29:28. Or, 2. By covetous desires and restless endeavours to heap up riches, whereby he greatly tires and troubles both himself and all his family with excessive cares and labours, which is... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Proverbs 11:30

The fruit of the righteous, i.e. which he produceth; his discourses and his whole conversation. Is a tree of life; is like the fruit of the tree of life; is a great preserver of his life, and a procurer of eternal life, not only to himself, but to others also. He that winneth souls, Heb. that catcheth souls, as a fowler doth birds; that maketh it his design and business, and useth all his skill and diligence, to gain souls to God, and to pluck them out of the snare of the devil. Is wise;... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Proverbs 11:31

The righteous shall be recompensed, i.e. punished for his sins, as appears from the next clause; the general word being here used of this one particular, by a synecdoche. In the earth; whereby he intimates that all his sufferings are confined to this world, which is an unspeakable felicity. Much more, they shall be punished more certainly and more severely, either in this life or in the next, the wicked and the sinner; those who make sin their great study, and daily and most delightful... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Proverbs 11:16

CRITICAL NOTES.—Proverbs 11:16. Last clause “as strong men retain,” or “grasp at riches.” MAIN HOMILETICS OF Proverbs 11:16A GRACIOUS WOMANI. What is a gracious woman? 1. She is one who stands in right relations to God. Everything depends upon right relationship. Upon the right relationship of the earth to the great centre of the solar system depends all that makes the earth of worth to us—all its glorious fruitfulness and beauty. If there was not this adjustment of relationship between the... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Proverbs 11:17

CRITICAL NOTES.—Proverbs 11:17. Or “He who doeth good to himself is a merciful man, but he who troubleth his own flesh is cruel.” So Stuart and Miller, Zöckler and Delitzsch read as the authorised version. MAIN HOMILETICS OF Proverbs 11:17MERCY AND CRUELTYI. A blessed human character—“A merciful man.” The blessedness of any human existence depends upon the amount of mercifulness found in it. It will be blessed in itself, and a blessing to others in proportion as this Divine characteristic is... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Proverbs 11:18-20

CRITICAL NOTES.—Proverbs 11:18. “The wicked gaineth a deceptive result, but he that soweth righteousness a sure reward” (Zöckler). MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH—Proverbs 11:18-20SOWING AND REAPINGI. The life-work of the wicked contains within itself the germs of a threefold bane, A deception, a death, and an abomination. 1. A deception. The wicked man expects from his life-work that which it cannot possibly yield. It is against the moral constitution of the universe that a life of... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Proverbs 11:21

CRITICAL NOTES.—Proverbs 11:21. The Hebrew here is simply “hand to hand, the wicked,” etc. Zöckler and Delitzsch understand it as a formula of strong asseveration derived from the custom of becoming surety by clasping hands, and hence equivalent to “assuredly,” “verily,” “I pledge it.” Stuart says “Different meanings have been assigned. 1. Hand against hand, i.e., the injurious man. 2. From one hand to another, i.e., from one generation to another. 3. Joining hands in way of assurance—“verily.”... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Proverbs 11:22

MAIN HOMILETICS OF Proverbs 11:22PRECIOUS THINGS POSSESSED BY UNWORTHY OWNERSI. There is an analogy between gold and beauty. 1. They are both gifts from God. Whether a man possesses gold by inheritance or as the result of labour it is a gift from God. In the first instance no praise or blame is due to him for being a rich man, he can no more help it than he can help being in existence. And it is no less a gift from God when it has been earned by toil (see Homiletics on chap. Proverbs 10:22).... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Proverbs 11:23

CRITICAL NOTES.—Proverbs 11:23. Wrath, i.e. God’s wrath (Zöckler). MAIN HOMILETICS OF Proverbs 11:23We cannot understand the first clause of this verse to mean that all a righteous man’s desires are good. 1. History contradicts it. Solomon must have known it was not true of his own father. David was a righteous man, but some of his desires were not only not good, but inhuman and devilish. Of all the good men of whom we read, whether in inspired or uninspired history, there is hardly one of whom... read more
