2 A wise man's heart directs him toward the right , but the foolish man's heart directs him toward the left .

Matthew Henry's Commentary on Ecclesiastes 10:2

Commentary on Ecclesiastes 10:1-3

(Read Ecclesiastes 10:1-3)

Those especially who make a profession of religion, should keep from all appearances of evil. A wise man has great advantage over a fool, who is always at a loss when he has anything to do. Sin is the reproach of sinners, wherever they go, and shows their folly.
