Proverbs 10:21-23

10:21 The lips of the righteous feed many, but fools die for lack of understanding. The military overtone is noticed in this verse. What I mean by this Solomon understood war, and its techniques, and it is when there is not a clear and established line of communication, people will die. This can come from misunderstood orders, to not having the necessary supplies or amunntion to comlete the mission or even survive. The logistics of any military force is the absoulte backbone. 10:22 It is the blessing of the lord that makes rich. and He adds no sorrow to it. Wealth is not a sin. Wealth is a blessing from God that is given for us to manage and to provide good stewardship over. The parable that Christ will late discuss emphasises this message that he has much, and takes care of it, will be given more. People all to often forget the part about being a good steward of that which you have. 10:23 Doing wickedness is like sport to a fool, and so is wisdom to a man of understanding. A fool will enjoy the destructive acts of his work for the burden of sin is not known to him. A man who does not understand how lost he is cannot begin to understand how much pain he is actually in.
