From here to the end of chapter 24 we have many short separate proverbs of Solomon. They tell of the path in which the wise walk. We do not have subjects taken up, as before. Most verses have a “but” in the middle, and then show the contrast.
V.2 The history of the world has proved this true. Look into any home and you will see one or the other of these two statements proved.
“Righteousness” or “righteous” for the believer today means living obediently to the Scriptures.
V.5 Now is the time to gather precious sheaves. Demas in 2 Timothy 4:10 quit before the harvest.
V.15 The believer is the rich man, the unbeliever is the poor, foolish person.
V.22 Good verse to memorize and to prove true in our own life. God longs to have us experience all this.
V.27 Eternity is seen here. Believers shall live forever, unbelievers shall perish, but exist. See the wisdom of each statement and prove God’s wisdom in giving us these verses.
