Proverbs 15:24 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

The way of life is above to the wise The way which a wise man takes to preserve and obtain spiritual and eternal life, is to place his heart, treasure, and conversation in things above; and to manage all his affairs in this world with due respect and subserviency to the happiness of another world; that he may depart from hell beneath Or, from the lowest hell; not from the grave, as this word is sometimes used, for no wisdom can preserve from that, but from hell, properly so called, as this word elsewhere signifies, as has been before observed.

Proverbs 15:24

24 The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath.
