Proverbs 28:22 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

He that hasteth to be rich That is pushed on by his desires to get riches by right or wrong; hath an evil eye Is uncharitable to persons in want, and envious toward those who get any thing besides himself; and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him And, consequently, that he shall need the pity and help of others, which he cannot reasonably expect, either from God or men, having so hardened his heart against others in misery.

Proverbs 28:22

22 He that hastethd to be rich hath an evil eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him.
