Proverbs 26:25 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Seven abominations - Compare Proverbs 26:16 note. Here “seven” retains, perhaps, its significance as the symbol of completeness. Evil has, as it were, gone through all its work, and holds its accursed Sabbath in the heart in which all things are “very evil.”

Proverbs 26:25

25 When he speakethk fair, believe him not: for there are seven abominations in his heart.
