Proverbs 27:26 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are the price of the field.

The lambs (are) for thy clothing - with their fleeces.

And the goats (are) the price of the field - you can buy the field with the price gotten by selling them (Ezekiel 27:21). You can more readily do without the he-goats than without the sheep or the she-goats.

Proverbs 27:26

26 The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are the price of the field.
