Proverbs 10:14 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Lay up — In their minds, to be brought forth upon fit occasions. Knowledge — Whereby they may be enabled to speak both what, and when it is seasonable. But — Fools are more forward to lay out than to lay up, and for want of knowledge speak much and foolishly, whereby they frequently bring destruction upon themselves.

Proverbs 10:14

14 Wise men lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the foolish is near destruction.
