understanding: Heb. heart

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

32. lacketh understanding-or, "heart"; destitute of moral principle and prudence.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

6:20-35 The word of God has something to say to us upon all occasions. Let not faithful reproofs ever make us uneasy. When we consider how much this sin abounds, how heinous adultery is in its own nature, of what evil consequence it is, and how certainly it destroys the spiritual life in the soul, we shall not wonder that the cautions against it are so often repeated. Let us notice the subjects of this chapter. Let us remember Him who willingly became our Surety, when we were strangers and enemies. And shall Christians, who have such prospects, motives, and examples, be slothful and careless? Shall we neglect what is pleasing to God, and what he will graciously reward? May we closely watch every sense by which poison can enter our minds or affections.


Proverbs 7:7 And I saw among the naive, And discerned among the youths A young man lacking sense,
Proverbs 7:22 Suddenly he follows her As an ox goes to the slaughter, Or as one in fetters to the discipline of a fool,
Proverbs 7:23 Until an arrow pierces through his liver; As a bird hastens to the snare, So he does not know that it will cost him his life.
Proverbs 9:4 "Whoever is naive, let him turn in here!" To him who lacks understanding she says,
Proverbs 9:16 "Whoever is naive, let him turn in here," And to him who lacks understanding she says,
Proverbs 10:13 On the lips of the discerning, wisdom is found, But a rod is for the back of him who lacks understanding.
Proverbs 10:21 The lips of the righteous feed many, But fools die for lack of understanding.
Proverbs 11:12 He who despises his neighbor lacks sense, But a man of understanding keeps silent.
Proverbs 12:11 He who tills his land will have plenty of bread, But he who pursues worthless things lacks sense. (NASB ©1995)
