 {v.30-34} See notes on Proverbs 6:10, 11, and 20:4. Graphic is the portrayal of the sluggard’s field, as by an eye-witness who stood sadly gazing upon it, and pondered as he vie wed its desolation. Thorns and nettles flourishing, but fruit absent; the wall broken down; and everything speaking of lack of care, and slothful indifference. May we too gaze upon it, and consider it well! (Proverbs Twenty-Four by H.A. Ironside)
