Proverbs 29
July 31st, 2009
Verse 7:
The righteous care about justice for the poor,
but the wicked have no such concern.
James expresses a similar sentiment when he indicates that true religion is taking care of orphans and widows in their distress.
Verse 18:
Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint;
but blessed is he who keeps the law.
A verse I’ve heard quoted as the reason to be good at casting a vision and making sure that the people know the vision. I’ve read other translations indicate that the people will perish rather than cast off restraint.
