This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Pro_28:28 When the wicked rise, men hide themselves: but when they perish, the righteous increase.

Ver. 28. When the wicked rise, men hide themselves.] They are glad to skulk and shelter themselves from that fierce storm. {See Trapp on "Pro_28:12"}



But when they perish, the righteous increase.] When either they die, or are deposed from their dignities, the righteous swarm as a hive of bees in a warm sunny day - as they did when Constantine came to the crown, and here when Queen Elizabeth came as a fresh spring after a sharp winter, and brought the ship of England from a tempestuous sea to a safe harbour.
