Proverbs 14:4 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Where no oxen are— This verse contains an admonition for the man without doors; as the first for the woman within; that he do not neglect his husbandry, of which, it is well known, oxen were the principal instruments, being not only employed in that country in plowing the ground, and carrying home the crop, but also in treading out the corn.

Proverbs 14:4

4 Where no oxen are, the crib is clean: but much increase is by the strength of the ox.
