Proverbi 8:3 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 8:3

She crieth at the gates
Of the temple, or of the city, where the courts of judicature were, and persons met on civil accounts; and where people were continually passing and repassing; at the entry of the city;
meeting those that came out of the country to the city upon trade and business; at the coming in at the doors;
of the temple, or city, or private houses; all these expressions denote the publicness of the Gospel ministry, both by Christ himself, who spake openly to the world, always taught in the synagogues and temple, and in secret said nothing; and who ordered his disciples to preach what they heard and received from him upon the house tops, ( John 18:20 ) ( Matthew 10:27 ) ; so did the Apostle Paul, ( Acts 20:20 Acts 20:27 ) .

Proverbi 8:3 In-Context

1 LA Sapienza non grida ella? E la Prudenza non dà ella fuori la sua voce?
2 Ella sta in piè in capo de’ luoghi elevati, in su la via, Ne’ crocicchi.
3 Ella grida presso alle porte, alla bocca della città, All’entrata degli usci delle case,
4 Dicendo: Io grido a voi, o uomini principali; E la mia voce s’indirizza ancora al volgo.
5 Semplici, intendete che cosa sia avvedimento; E voi stolti, intendete che cosa sia buon senno.
