Proverbs 20:10-12 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them are alike abomination to the LORD. Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right. The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them.

What a sweet thought ariseth out of this account, that it is the Lord who hath given sight to the eyes, and hearing to the ears. And was not Jesus anointed by the Spirit to preach the gospel to the poor, to heal the broken in heart, and to give sight to the blind. Isaiah 61:1; Luke 4:18-19.
