Proverbs 28:20 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Not the possession of wealth, nor even the acquisition of it, is evil, but the eager haste of covetousness.

Shall not be innocent - Better, as in the margin, in contrast with the many “blessings” of the “faithful.”

Proverbs 28:20

20 A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.c
