Proverbs 24:28 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Be not a witness against thy neighbour without cause; and deceive not with thy lips. Be not a witness - Do not be forward to offer thyself to bear testimony against a neighbor, in a matter which may prejudice him, where the essential claims of justice do not require such interference; and especially do not do this in a spirit of revenge, because he has injured thee before.

28 Be not a witness against thy neighbour without cause; and deceive not with thy lips.
