The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool shall fall (Mga Proverbio 10:8)
A person, who is wise in heart, will receive commandments and is able to submit himself/herself to authorities; parents, eskwelahan, sa ubang dapit, work, church, the state and so on.
The wise in heart
When we apply this proverb to the believers of Jesus Christ; the sons of God, it means that a wise son, will listen to the commandments of God (of Jesus), and apply these commandments to his life.
Because of the fact that the son listens to the commandments of God, ang mga sugo ni Jesus, and walks in His commandments, he shall grow up into a mature son of God. He shall walk in wisdom and understanding on the path of righteousness, which will lead to eternal life.
A prating fool
But a fool is rebellious and shall reject the commandments of God. He shall not submit himself to God’s Word, or any authority or whatsoever. He shall let no one tell him what to do, and therefore he shall reject any commandment. A fool shall life after his own will, and shall life according to what he thinks, feels, and wants.
He thinks he knows it all better and therefore walks in pride. But the truth is that he is walking in a lie, on the path of unrighteousness, which will lead to destruction. He is a prating fool, who speak lies, instead of the truth of God. And by the foolishness of his own mouth, he shall eventually fall.
Do you want to walk in wisdom, and be wise in heart? Then submit yourself to the Word of God, receive His commandments and do them.
