Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Proverbs 11:1-31

The Christian's Highest Reward Proverbs 11:31 I. I understand the emphatic words to be, 'in the earth'. There never had been any doubt about the final reward of the righteous; but there were evidently some who were beginning to say: 'It must be reserved for another world; this earth of ours is indifferent to moral distinctions'.

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Proverbs 11:1-31

Some regard the division now entered upon as the original nucleus of the whole collection of proverbs (see the first sentence of verse one). The division extends really to the close of chapter 22, and contains “maxims, precepts and admonitions with respect to the most diverse relations of life.” In so much of it as is covered by the present lesson we have a contrast “between the godly and the ungodly, and their respective lots in life.” We have this contrast set before us, first in general... read more

The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Proverbs 11:1-31

Verse Proverbs 11:7.
