What does Proverbs 26:18-22 mean? Commentary, explanation and study verse by verse.
As a mad man who casteth firebrands,h arrows, and death,
So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Am not I in sport?
Where noi wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.
As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire; so is a contentious man to kindle strife.
The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
