This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Pro_26:28 A lying tongue hateth [those that are] afflicted by it; and a flattering mouth worketh ruin.
Ver. 28. A lying tongue hateth those that are addicted by it.] False love proves to be true hatred, by the evil consequent of its ruin and destruction to the party flattered, and betrayed by a smooth supparasitation. There are those who thus read the text. The false tongue hateth those that smite it, &c. Truth breeds hatred, as the fair nymphs did the ill-favoured fauns and satyrs.
