A Threefold Cord (for the First Sunday of the Year) Proverbs 27:1 This is not a commonplace. Nothing in God's Word is commonplace. Nothing inspired by the Holy Ghost could be commonplace. If you think it is a commonplace sentiment, I can tell you are commonplace. It is the deepest and truest philosophy of life. 'Thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.' And it is the very best philosophy by which to stimulate us Christians for the beginning of the new year. First of all, there is the... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Proverbs 27:1-27

V. INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN TO SOLOMON In the three chapters which follow 27-29 we find the change we have noticed before. These proverbs are addressed to a person and the phrases “My son” and the personal address, “thou,” “thy” and “thyself,” are again used in these chapters. Like the previous sections, so here we find instructions which were given to Solomon. CHAPTER 27 Instructions and Warnings The opening proverb warns against procrastination. No one can be sure of what the next day may bring... read more

Geneva Study Bible - Proverbs 27:26

27:26 The {k} lambs [are] for thy clothing, and the goats [are] the price of the field.(k) This declares the great goodness of God towards man, and the diligence that he requires from him for the preservation of his gifts. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Proverbs 27:1-27

HERE THE SUBJECT matter is completely changed. No longer is the outside opposition of the enemy found, but any dangers now considered are those arising from the state of our own hearts. This third section therefore is that of the sanctuary, though the language here may veil this somewhat; yet it is the inner state of the soul with its proper refuge in the presence of God that is here indicated. This is plainly the Leviticus section, where the holiness of God ' s presence leads to honest, real... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Proverbs 27:1-27

This division of the book is introduced in the first verse of chapter 25, as the “proverbs of Solomon, which the men of Hezekiah, king of Judah, copied out.” What these words mean it is difficult to say, except in the general sense that the teachers of Hezekiah’s period selected and gathered together wise sayings that had been written, or handed down orally in previous generations. They may have been those of Solomon only, and yet his name may be attached to them simply because they were now... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Proverbs 27:11-27

My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me. A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished. Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a pledge of him for a strange woman. He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him. A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike. Whosoever hideth her hideth the wind,... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Proverbs 27:27

REFLECTIONS. WHAT the wise man hath said in the close of this chapter, of the diligence of looking well to the state of the flock, and the care of the herds, may well be construed into the diligence every man ought to have to the care of the soul, and to know the state in which he stands before God. Tell me, (saith the church upon this momentous subject) tell me, 0 thou, whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, Where thou makest thy flocks to rest at noon. For why should I be as one that... read more
