Bible Comments

v. 16. A gracious woman retaineth honor, her amiable and pleasant disposition, her grace and charm, give her an honored and powerful standing in the community; and strong men retain riches, making use of decision and energy in holding outward wealth, which, after all, cannot compare with the blessing of a high regard in the eyes of others.
