Proverbs 13:8 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Riches — Riches enable a man to redeem his life when it is in greatest danger, and poverty preserves a man from many injuries. Because they are cautious, that they may not provoke others; and because they are esteemed objects of pity.

Proverbs 13:8

8 The ransom of a man's life are his riches: but the poor heareth not rebuke.
