3 And also, when he that is a fool Is walking in the way, his heart is lacking, And he hath said to every one, 'He 'is' a fool.'

Matthew Henry's Commentary on Ecclesiastes 10:3

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.
