This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Pro_23:12 Apply thine heart unto instruction, and thine ears to the words of knowledge.

Ver. 12. Apply thy heart unto instruction.] Make thine heart to come to it - though never so averse. Call in thy scattered thoughts, and busy them about the best things. Anima dispersa fit minor. This is the wise man’s counsel to the younger sort. But because sardis plerunque fabulam, few youths will be better advised; therefore he bespeaks their parents and tutors in the next words.
