Proverbs 15:25 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

The widow - Here, as elsewhere Deuteronomy 10:18; Psalms 68:5, the widow, as the most extreme type of desolation, stands as the representative of a class safer in their poverty under the protection of the Lord, than the proud in the haughtiness of their strength.

Proverbs 15:25

25 The LORD will destroy the house of the proud: but he will establish the border of the widow.
