Proverbs 15:5 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

A fool despiseth Doth not regard nor obey; (which is an evidence of contempt;) his father's instruction Who hath both love to him and authority over him, which greatly aggravates his folly; but he that regardeth reproof That is, is willing to receive, and duly regard the reproof of any person whatsoever, and much more of a father; is prudent Hath already attained a great degree of wisdom, and prudently consults his own welfare and happiness.
