Proverbs 10-12
Aug. 23rd, 2010 10:26 pmWhy is a good son a joy to his father but a bad son causes grief for his mother? I guess the father says 'my son' when he's proud and 'your son' when he's not happy with him.
We haven't had a good abomination recently, apparently you should not cheat people with inaccurate scales because God hates it, not because it is just wrong to be dishonest in business.
And then we have a list which basically repeats 'good people are good, wicked people are wicked' over and again using several examples.
I wouldn't disagree with a lot of these examples of good and bad behaviour, though the proclamation that the righteous will live and wickedness leads to death is not even slightly true.
