Proverbs 15:7

The lips of the wise disperse knowledge ,.... Scatter it about for the benefit of others; they are communicative and diffusive of it unto others, that fruit may abound to their account: so the first ministers of the Gospel diffused the savour of the knowledge of Christ and his Gospel in every place; their words went into all the earth, and their sound to the end of the world; and so every Gospel minister will speak according to the oracles of God, and according to the abilities and measure of the gift which he has received; and to the utmost of his power feeds souls with knowledge and understanding;

but the heart of the foolish doth not so ; does not disperse knowledge, for he has no solid substantial knowledge in him: or, "the heart of the foolish is not right" F24 לא כן "non erit rectum", Pagninus, Baynus; "non est rectum", Piscator, Mercerus. ; it is full of folly and wickedness: or "the heart of the foolish does not disperse that which is right" F25 "Spargit quod abest a recto", Junius & Tremellius, Amama; "eventilant non rectum", Schultens, Cocceius. ; true and right things, and the knowledge of them; but, on the contrary, as in Proverbs 15:2 , "pours out foolishness".
