Proverbs 19:19 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

A man of great wrath Or, he who is of great wrath, that is, of strong passions; who is of a fierce and furious temper; shall suffer punishment Will certainly bring great mischiefs upon himself; for if thou deliver him If any parent, relation, or friend deliver him out of one trouble, through his ungovernable temper he will soon involve himself in another; and thou must do it again Thou wilt soon find it necessary to interpose for his deliverance a second, third, or even fourth time: all which trouble to themselves and others would be prevented if such men would look unto God for grace to enable them to mortify their passions, and to get the rule of their own spirits.

Proverbs 19:19

19 A man of great wrath shall suffer punishment: for if thou deliver him, yet thou must do it again.
