Proverbs 3:17 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.

Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. Both the way, and the end to which the way leads, is peace. Though her ways are painful to the flesh, they are "pleasantness" to the spirit: not merely pleasant, but "pleasantness" itself; not merely peaceable and peaceful, but "peace" itself. 'There are many ways in the world pleasant, but not safe; others safe, but not pleasant.'

Proverbs 3:17

17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.
