Proverbs 20:18 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.

And with good advice make war - for victory is more often obtained by skill than by strength. First sit down and count the cost, and prepare your plans (Luke 14:31-32). The Lord alone can 'establish purposes' (1 Chronicles 29:18).
