Bible Question: Please explain proverbs 24:27..I need to know if I can stand on this script for a new home. |
Bible Answer: Proverbs...not always absolute promises AMPLIFIED Proverbs 24:27 [Put first things first.] Prepare your work outside and get it ready for yourself in the field; and afterward build your house and establish a home. Ms. C: I would not interpret Proverbs 24:27 as a promise. Introduction to the Book of Proverbs Interpretive Challenges 'A final area of challenge comes in understanding that proverbs are divine guidelines and wise observations, i.e., teaching underlying principles which are not always inflexible laws or absolute promises. These expressions of general truth generally do have "exceptions," due to the uncertainty of life and unpredictable behavior of fallen men. God does not guarantee uniform outcome or application for each proverb...' ____________________ MacArthur Study Bible, John MacArthur, Word Publishing, 1997 Grace to you, kalos |
