Job 31:13
right <04941> [the cause.]
<07379> [when.]
In ancient times slaves had no action at law against their owners; but Job admitted them to all civil rights, and permitted them to complain even against himself.
Proverbs 9:9
Proverbs 25:11-12
word <01697> [word.]
spoken <0212 01696> [fitly spoken. Heb. spoken upon his wheels. is like.]
Rather "is like golden apples ({tappuchim,} in Arabic, {tuffach,}) in baskets ({maskeeyoth,} in Arabic, {shakeekat,}) of silver." A word spoken with propriety, opportunely, and suitably to the occasion, is as much in its place, and as conspicuously beautiful, as the golden fruit which appears through the apertures of an exquisitely wrought silver basket.

wise <02450> [a wise.]
Ezekiel 47:1-9
entrance <06607> [the door.]
water .................... water <04325 03318> [waters issued.]
Solomon's temple and the second temple were doubtless well supplied with water, probably conveyed there by means of pipes; but these waters flowed from the temple, not as a common sewer, but as a fertilizing river. A fountain producing abundance of water was not in the temple, and could not be there on the top of such a hill; and consequently these waters, as well as those spoken of by Joel and Zechariah, must be understood figuratively and typically. These waters doubtless were an emblem of the "gospel preached with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven;" and their gradual rise beautifully represents it progress, from small beginnings to an immensely large increase; and the latter part of the representation may relate to the times when it shall fill the earth, and produce the most extensive and important effects on the state of making in every nation.

Arabah <06160> [desert. or, plain.]
Sea .... sea <03220> [the sea.]
This was the Dead sea, or sea of Sodom, east of Jerusalem, in which it is said no living creature is found; or, at least, from its extreme saltness, it does not abound with fish like other seas. The healing of these waters denotes the calling of the Gentiles.
