Proverbs — Chapter 24

0:00 --:--

1 Be not thou envious against evil men, neither desire to be with them.

2 For their heart studieth destruction, and their lips talk of mischief.

3 Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established:

4 And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches.

5 A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength.

6 For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety.

7 Wisdom is too high for a fool: he openeth not his mouth in the gate.

8 He that deviseth to do evil shall be called a mischievous person.

9 The thought of foolishness is sin: and the scorner is an abomination to men.

10 If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.

11 If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain;

12 If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works?

13 My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste:

14 So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off.

15 Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous; spoil not his resting place:

16 For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.

17 Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth:

18 Lest the LORD see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.

19 Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious at the wicked;

20 For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle of the wicked shall be put out.

21 My son, fear thou the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change:

22 For their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knoweth the ruin of them both?

23 These things also belong to the wise. It is not good to have respect of persons in judgment.

24 He that saith unto the wicked, Thou art righteous; him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him:

25 But to them that rebuke him shall be delight, and a good blessing shall come upon them.

26 Every man shall kiss his lips that giveth a right answer.

27 Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterwards build thine house.

28 Be not a witness against thy neighbour without cause; and deceive not with thy lips.

29 Say not, I will do so to him as he hath done to me: I will render to the man according to his work.

30 I went by the field of the slothful, and by the vineyard of the man void of understanding;

31 And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, and nettles had covered the face thereof, and the stone wall thereof was broken down.

32 Then I saw, and considered it well: I looked upon it, and received instruction.

33 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:

34 So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth; and thy want as an armed man.

Proverbs — Chapter 24

✦ Talmud

• Sanhedrin 17a requires Sanhedrin members to know the arts of medicine, mathematics, and magic in order to judge — Proverbs 24:5 "a wise man is mightier than a strong man, and a man of knowledge increases strength" is the intelligence-over-force doctrine applied to the highest court: the Talmudic judiciary is an anti-Sitra Achra intelligence service that must understand every weapon in the enemy's arsenal.

• Berakhot 7b teaches that even one righteous person justifies the entire world — Proverbs 24:16 "a righteous man falls seven times and rises again, but the wicked stumble into calamity" is the resilience doctrine for the individual Tzaddik: the Sitra Achra counts on each fall as a terminal knockout, but the Tzaddik's seven rises constitute a force-multiplication cycle beyond the enemy's strategic planning.

• Avot 5:18 lists those who destroy the world and those who protect it — Proverbs 24:21 "fear the Lord and the king, and do not join with those who do otherwise" maps the dual-authority structure (divine and royal) as a double protection racket against Sitra Achra political infiltration: the warrior who subverts both becomes an instrument of chaos-generation.

• Shabbat 55a records that Shem, Yefet, and Ham all descended from the same father yet one merited a blessing and one a curse — Proverbs 24:17 "do not rejoice when your enemy falls, and let not your heart be glad when he stumbles" is the Talmudic anti-gloating order: the soul that delights in enemy destruction aligns itself with the Sitra Achra's own pleasure-in-ruin frequency, corrupting the warrior's operational frequency.

• Ketubot 103b records Rabbi Yehudah HaNasi's deathbed instructions that his burial site remain undisturbed — Proverbs 24:3 "by wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established, and by knowledge its rooms are filled" is the Talmudic architectural metaphor for the Torah-home: the three-layer construction (wisdom, understanding, knowledge = Chokhmah, Binah, Da'at) is the anti-Sitra Achra structural specification.
