All right, we didn't move on, okay. 199 00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:03.039 So let's move on to proverbs chaps. 200 00:09:03.039 --> 00:09:05.039 So I think you just did your daughter a favor. 201 00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:06.240 Why? Why is that? 202 00:09:06.440 --> 00:09:08.679 Because you just brightened up her day, made her laugh 203 00:09:08.679 --> 00:09:09.240 for a minute. 204 00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:11.840 Well, and I woke her up with laughter. Yeah how 205 00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:12.279 about that? 206 00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:15.399 And Solomon talking in chapter nineteen, he talks about how 207 00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:19.559 many people seek favors from the ruler. Was that rough? 208 00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:20.480 Wow? 209 00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:23.399 Was that rough. Yeah, it was a rough one. Apropriately, 210 00:09:23.600 --> 00:09:26.759 we got there, We got there. Yes, Okay, here we go. Ready, 211 00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:29.720 we're in chapter nineteen. We're reading little one liner slogans 212 00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:33.679 of wisdom about how to live life from Solomon. And 213 00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:36.080 here's what he says in proverb of nineteen. Better to 214 00:09:36.120 --> 00:09:40.279 be poor and honest than to be dishonest and a fool. 215 00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:47.320 Enthusiasm without knowledge is no good. Haste makes mistakes. People 216 00:09:47.399 --> 00:09:49.840 ruin their lives by their own foolishness, and then they 217 00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:53.080 are angry at the Lord. We could have stopped there. Yeah, 218 00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:54.960 let me read that one again again. How about I 219 00:09:54.960 --> 00:09:57.840 read that again one more time. Ye, People ruined their 220 00:09:57.919 --> 00:10:01.919 lives by their own foolishness and then are angry at 221 00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:02.360 the Lord. 222 00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:04.759 I've had those conversations before. 223 00:10:04.840 --> 00:10:09.159 Yeah, let me read that one more time. People ruin 224 00:10:09.240 --> 00:10:12.240 their lives by their own foolishness and then are angry 225 00:10:12.279 --> 00:10:15.799 at the Lord. All right, we're gonna move on. Wealth 226 00:10:15.879 --> 00:10:19.159 makes many friends quote unquote, Poverty drives them all away. 227 00:10:19.919 --> 00:10:22.480 A false witness will not go unpunished, nor will a 228 00:10:22.519 --> 00:10:26.639 liar escape. Many seek favors from a ruler. Everyone is 229 00:10:26.679 --> 00:10:29.879 the friend of a person who gives gifts. The relatives 230 00:10:29.919 --> 00:10:32.440 of the poor despise them. How much more will their 231 00:10:32.440 --> 00:10:35.799 friends avoid them? Though the poor plead with them, their 232 00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:39.679 friends are gone. To acquire wisdom is to love oneself. 233 00:10:40.080 --> 00:10:43.759 People who cherish understanding will prosper. A false witness will 234 00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:46.519 not go unpunished, and a liar will be destroyed. He's 235 00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:49.679 already said that one before it. By the way, it 236 00:10:49.720 --> 00:10:51.759 isn't right for a fool to live in luxury or 237 00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:55.799 for a slave to rule over princes. Sensible people control 238 00:10:55.840 --> 00:10:59.919 their temper. They earn respect by overlooking wrongs. The king 239 00:11:00.159 --> 00:11:02.639 anger is like a lion's roar, but his favor is 240 00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:05.960 like dew on the grass. A foolish child is a 241 00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:09.279 calamity to a father aquarrelsome wife is as annoying as 242 00:11:09.399 --> 00:11:12.720 constant dripping Wow. Not going to touch that one at all. 243 00:11:13.120 --> 00:11:14.399 I have no idea what he's talking about. 244 00:11:14.519 --> 00:11:17.279 Guess what you're displaying wisdom on your ears. 245 00:11:17.320 --> 00:11:20.919 I have no concept of what he means there. Fathers 246 00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:23.320 can give their sons an inheritance of houses and wealth, 247 00:11:23.320 --> 00:11:27.120 but only the lord can give an understanding wife. Lazy 248 00:11:27.159 --> 00:11:32.200 people sleep soundly, but idleness leaves them hungry. Keep the commandments, 249 00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:35.840 and keep your life. Despising them leads to death. If 250 00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:37.919 you help the poor, you're lending to the Lord, and 251 00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:41.919 he will repay you. Discipline your children while there is hope, 252 00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:46.240 Otherwise you will ruin their lives. Hot tempered people must 253 00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:48.639 pay the penalty. If you rescue them once, you'll have 254 00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:51.639 to do it again. Get all the advice and instruction 255 00:11:51.759 --> 00:11:54.759 you can so you'll be wise the rest of your life. 256 00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:58.240 You can make many plans, but the Lord's purpose will prevail. 257 00:11:59.399 --> 00:12:02.720 Loyalty the person attractive. It's better to be poor than dishonest. 258 00:12:03.559 --> 00:12:06.639 Fear of the Lord leads to life, bringing security and 259 00:12:06.720 --> 00:12:10.200 protection from harm. Lazy people take food in their hand, 260 00:12:10.240 --> 00:12:13.200 but don't even lift it to their mouth. If you 261 00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:15.879 punish a mocker, the simple minded will learn a lesson. 262 00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:19.159 If you correct the wise, they will be all the wiser. 263 00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:23.000 Children who mistreat their father or chase away their mother 264 00:12:23.039 --> 00:12:26.519 are an embarrassment and a public disgrace. If you stop 265 00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:29.039 listening to instruction, my child, you will turn your back 266 00:12:29.080 --> 00:12:33.200 on knowledge. A corrupt witness makes a mockery of injustice. 267 00:12:33.240 --> 00:12:36.399 The mouth of the wicked gulpes down. Evil Punishment is 268 00:12:36.440 --> 00:12:39.159 made for mockers, and the backs of fools are made 269 00:12:39.159 --> 00:12:44.720 to be beaten. Wow, yeah, that's that. Hey, we mentioned 270 00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:47.080 that in the last chapter two. This seems to be 271 00:12:47.120 --> 00:12:49.679 a theme where Solomon says pretty much the only answer 272 00:12:49.720 --> 00:12:52.399 for a lot of fools is just a beating, right, 273 00:12:53.320 --> 00:12:54.679 And what he's saying is life is always going to 274 00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:57.960 be painful for foolish people, right, Yeah. 275 00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:01.919 And there's a lot of there's a lot of strong 276 00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:03.440 language in this chapter, isn't there. 277 00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:04.000 Yeah? 278 00:13:04.279 --> 00:13:05.759 Yeah, I mean, you. 279 00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:07.279 Know, and so obviously the one that we made a 280 00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:10.559 joke about is a quarrelsome wife is as annoying as 281 00:13:10.600 --> 00:13:13.559 a constant dripping And you're like, oh, I'm not going 282 00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:14.320 to touch that one. 283 00:13:14.360 --> 00:13:15.559 I have no idea what that means. 284 00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:16.240 Yeah, that's so. 285 00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:18.960 In fact, I personally had forgotten that was in there 286 00:13:19.480 --> 00:13:20.519 until you just reread it. 287 00:13:21.240 --> 00:13:22.559 Yeah, you just shut it out of your mind. 288 00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:24.840 Yeah no, I yeah, yeah. 289 00:13:24.679 --> 00:13:25.360 That's so funny. 290 00:13:26.320 --> 00:13:30.440 And and you know that's a that is a obviously 291 00:13:30.480 --> 00:13:32.639 a scripture that would speak to a wife who has 292 00:13:32.679 --> 00:13:33.600 a tendency. 293 00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:33.799 To be quarrelsome. 294 00:13:34.039 --> 00:13:37.000 Right, So we won't let the husband apply that, We'll 295 00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:39.120 let the wives recognize that in themselves. 296 00:13:39.159 --> 00:13:40.720 If applicable that's why I'm trying to tell you. I 297 00:13:40.759 --> 00:13:42.200 don't even know what it means. That's right. 298 00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:45.840 But then another strong language obviously we just read it, 299 00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:48.960 you know, the backs of fools are made to be beaten. 300 00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:53.480 That is really strong. And what else, what other strong 301 00:13:53.559 --> 00:13:54.519 language is in here? 302 00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:58.639 Well, So it's interesting in King James, verse twenty five 303 00:13:58.679 --> 00:14:02.039 and verse twenty nine are somewhat similar, and it says 304 00:14:02.399 --> 00:14:05.840 strike a mocker, and the simple minded will learn a lesson. 305 00:14:06.600 --> 00:14:09.840 If you collect the why, correct the wise, then everybody 306 00:14:09.879 --> 00:14:12.600 will be wiser. And then in verse twenty nine it says, 307 00:14:15.519 --> 00:14:18.159 strike a mocker. The backs of fools are made for 308 00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:24.039 being beaten. So it's telling you there that sometimes you 309 00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:27.840 have to pull somebody in and the consequences aren't just 310 00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:29.840 for them, it's for the other people around them. The 311 00:14:29.879 --> 00:14:32.679 simple people around them will learn, hey, there's consequences that 312 00:14:32.679 --> 00:14:36.120 bad behavior. You know, so you've heard before in leadership, 313 00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:41.279 always correct in private, yes, right, and always praise in public. 314 00:14:42.039 --> 00:14:45.600 There is some benefit of that. On occasion, you have 315 00:14:45.679 --> 00:14:49.080 to punish in public so that everybody understands there's significant 316 00:14:49.120 --> 00:14:51.639 consequences that thing on occasion, right, And that's kind of 317 00:14:51.639 --> 00:14:55.320 what he's saying, there is there is there If everybody 318 00:14:55.320 --> 00:14:57.799 in the room is living this simple minded thing or 319 00:14:57.879 --> 00:15:01.480 heading in that direction, or if this person is influencing 320 00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:03.639 everybody else to do a bad thing, well then it 321 00:15:03.679 --> 00:15:06.279 has to be a public thing right consequence to it, 322 00:15:06.480 --> 00:15:09.080 so that you turn. So if you punish a mocker 323 00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:11.879 the simple mind to learn a lesson and then correct 324 00:15:11.879 --> 00:15:15.279 wise people and they'll be all the wiser. Right. But 325 00:15:15.399 --> 00:15:18.600 on the other side, sometimes he just says that the 326 00:15:18.600 --> 00:15:23.320 mocker type person, the person is just really disrespectful about 327 00:15:23.399 --> 00:15:26.519 leadership and all that kind of stuff, then quite honestly, 328 00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:30.320 punishment's made for them, right basically way saying is no 329 00:15:30.360 --> 00:15:33.279 real hope you punish them, they're not going to change. 330 00:15:34.720 --> 00:15:35.600 Yeah. 331 00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:38.320 Another verse that jumps out of me is discipline your 332 00:15:38.399 --> 00:15:40.000 children while there is I was. 333 00:15:40.000 --> 00:15:41.919 Going to bring that one up, Yeah, yeah, I love that. 334 00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:43.279 Otherwise you're ruined their lives. 335 00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:45.960 So Tory, the who you just have the phone with, 336 00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:49.559 I woke her up at nine thirty in the morning. 337 00:15:50.279 --> 00:15:51.919 She sleeps in today. 338 00:15:52.360 --> 00:15:55.919 We're technically filming this on a Wednesday, right, and we're 339 00:15:55.919 --> 00:15:58.840 filming this and I know that the listeners are way 340 00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:03.320 past Thanksgiving, but we're filming this the day before Thanksgiving off. 341 00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:05.879 She has a day off because of the holidays. She's 342 00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:06.399 a teacher. 343 00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:09.799 She just told me a story yesterday about how this 344 00:16:09.919 --> 00:16:15.039 child was doing these outrageous things. Outrageous, right, and then 345 00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:17.639 they called the parent in because this child was so 346 00:16:17.879 --> 00:16:20.799 you know, bad, And she said. The parents stood there, 347 00:16:20.960 --> 00:16:25.399 did nothing and then waited until the child who bossed 348 00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:28.399 her around left the room. And then the parent looked 349 00:16:28.440 --> 00:16:31.759 at them and said, well, that's her. She just blames 350 00:16:31.799 --> 00:16:35.440 everybody else. Okay, let's cool, honey, and just left. And 351 00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:41.320 my daughter said, why don't parents understand how much of 352 00:16:41.360 --> 00:16:42.600 a disservice that they're doing. 353 00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:43.639 To their children? Right? 354 00:16:44.159 --> 00:16:45.600 And she didn't say it that way, she said it 355 00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:48.000 in a more frustrating way, right, But she you know, 356 00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:50.519 was still like she was sort of amazed. Now here 357 00:16:50.559 --> 00:16:54.440 she is at twenty four years old, and she already 358 00:16:54.440 --> 00:16:56.200 knows better, right, right, And she's. 359 00:16:56.039 --> 00:16:59.039 Thinking, like, come on, you have a job, people, you 360 00:16:59.080 --> 00:16:59.919 have a job. 361 00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:04.160 And and and this verse seems to indicate that there 362 00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:06.680 is a spot where there's a point. 363 00:17:06.440 --> 00:17:07.039 Of no return. 364 00:17:07.319 --> 00:17:08.960 Right, that's exactly right, right. 365 00:17:08.880 --> 00:17:12.519 Discipline your child while there's still is hope. Right, So 366 00:17:12.559 --> 00:17:14.440 there's still hope. It's not too late for that lady 367 00:17:14.519 --> 00:17:19.039 to to shape up as a parent, regardless of how 368 00:17:19.119 --> 00:17:22.720 bad your children may be. Right, but there is definitely 369 00:17:22.759 --> 00:17:25.519 a point of no return. And you know, it's that 370 00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:28.480 other proverbs that says, what does it say, train a 371 00:17:28.599 --> 00:17:30.279 child in the in the way that he or she 372 00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:32.599 should go, and when they're old, they will not depart 373 00:17:32.599 --> 00:17:33.240 from us, right? 374 00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:33.559 Right? 375 00:17:33.599 --> 00:17:34.839 Yeah, I think we're going to get to that one 376 00:17:34.839 --> 00:17:36.759 pretty soon. Yeah, probably, So, you know, I think it's 377 00:17:36.839 --> 00:17:41.119 amazing that Solomon wrote this, considering his dad was famous 378 00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:45.119 for not disciplining his sons, right, and so I think 379 00:17:45.160 --> 00:17:47.359 he this could be a testimony of this is what 380 00:17:47.400 --> 00:17:48.400 I had learned in life. 381 00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:50.119 But there seems to be But there seems to be 382 00:17:50.160 --> 00:17:53.480 an indication though that that David spend time with Solomon. 383 00:17:53.880 --> 00:17:56.279 David gave Solomon a really great speech. But it seems 384 00:17:56.279 --> 00:17:59.160 like the credit for Solomon's raising was his mother Bethsheba. 385 00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:01.240 That's probably true, right. 386 00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:04.279 Because all of the sons are always named. And then 387 00:18:04.359 --> 00:18:07.400 said the son of like Ada, Naija's the son of Hageth, right, 388 00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:09.799 that that's that's how they would they would do that. 389 00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:13.799 But Solomon is always mentioned the son of Bethsheba, and 390 00:18:13.839 --> 00:18:15.920 it would talk about and he even talks about, as 391 00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:18.559 you get later in the in this book, how wise 392 00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:20.559 his mother is, that his mother raised him up. Right. 393 00:18:21.240 --> 00:18:22.880 There's a couple of things if you remember in the 394 00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:26.000 stories uh there towards Solomon, the and of Solomon's life, 395 00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:28.799 that that she would intervene on his behalf and that 396 00:18:28.839 --> 00:18:32.480 she was considered a wise woman in the country. Whereas 397 00:18:32.799 --> 00:18:35.519 remember when it mentions ad Naija, it says that David 398 00:18:35.640 --> 00:18:38.440 never even raised his voice to him, never corrected him 399 00:18:38.480 --> 00:18:41.920 one time, one time, right, right. So then if you 400 00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:45.680 look at the first four sons of David, every one 401 00:18:45.680 --> 00:18:47.400
