 Literal renderings, alternate translations or explanations.
1 In Proverbs various kinds of fools are discussed including those who are closed-minded, over-confident, and reject instruction and correction--the unteachable; those who lack spiritual insight--the spiritually blind; and those who are flippant, hardened, and who deliberately choose to reject God and wisdom--the arrogant.
