(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)
This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Smite a scorner; an obstinate and impudent transgressor, who rejects and scorns all admonitions, and therefore is to be taught with blows.
The simple; who sin through ignorance, and imprudence, and infirmity, being possibly drawn to sin by the scorner’s evil counsel or example.
He will understand knowledge; a verbal reproof will be more effectual for his reformation than the severest punishments will be to a scorner.
