(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

removeth stones - namely, of an ancient building [Weiss]. His neighbor’s landmarks [Holden]. Cuts out from the quarry [Maurer].

endangered - by the splinters, or by the head of the hatchet, flying back on himself. Pithy aphorisms are common in the East. The sense is: Violations of true wisdom recoil on the perpetrators.
