Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Proverbs 30:1

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

1. This is the title of this chapter (see :- ). the prophecy —literally, "the burden" (compare Isaiah 13:1 ; Zechariah 9:1 ), used for any divine instruction; not necessarily a prediction, which was only a kind of prophecy ( 1 Chronicles 15:27 , "a song"). Prophets were inspired men, who spoke for God to man, or for man to God ( Genesis 20:7 ; Exodus 7:14 ; Exodus 7:15 ; Exodus 7:16 ). Such, also, were the New Testament prophets. In a general sense, Gad, Nathan, and others were such, who were divine teachers, though we do not learn that they ever predicted. the man spake —literally, "the saying of the man"; an expression used to denote any solemn and important announcement (compare 2 Samuel 23:1 ; Psalms 36:1 ; Psalms 110:1 ; Isaiah 1:24 , &c.). Ithiel and Ucal were perhaps pupils. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-2" class="com-number"
