This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Dispersed, to wit, his goods, and that freely and liberally, to several persons, as occasion is offered, as this word implies.
His righteousness, i.e. his liberality, as this word is used, Pro_10:2 11:4 Dan_4:27 2Co_9:9,10, &c.; or the reward of it, as before, Psa_112:3.
Endureth for ever; either,
1. His charity is not a transient or occasional act, but his constant course, of which he is not weary, but perseveres in it to the end of his life. Or,
2. What he gives is not lost nor cast away, as covetous or ungodly men judge of alms, but indeed is the only part of his estate, which will abide with him unto all eternity.
His horn shall be exalted with honour; though he may be reproached by ungodly men, yet his innocency shall be cleared, and his name and honour gloriously exalted.
