Proverbs 28:2

Verse 2

When wickedness abounds in a land, there is usually a high rate of turnover in the leadership (Proverbs 28:2 a). The Northern Kingdom of Israel is a prime example. Nevertheless, a single wise ruler can bring stability to a land (Proverbs 28:2 b). God blessed the Southern Kingdom of Judah with relative stability because of David’s godly leadership.

"To continue in office the son must uphold what is known to be right and not tolerate legal offenses either in himself or in his subjects." [Note: Waltke, The Book . . . 31, p. 408.]
