(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)
This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
23 An abomination to Jahve are two kinds of weights;
And deceitful balances are not good.
A variant to Pro 20:10, Pro 11:1. The pred. לֹא־טוֹב (Pro 17:26; Pro 18:5; Pro 19:3) is conceived of as neut.; they are not good, much rather bad and pernicious, for the deceiver succeeds only in appearance; in reality he fails.
