Sprueche 24:26 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 24:26

[Every man] shall kiss [his] lips that giveth a right
answer.
] Either as a witness to a question put to him in court, to which he answers aptly and uprightly; or rather as a judge, who, having heard a cause, answers and gives his opinion of it faithfully, and pronounces a righteous sentence; everyone will love and respect him, and hearken to him and obey him; both affection and obedience are signified by a kiss; see ( Psalms 2:12 ) ( Song of Solomon 8:1 ) .

Sprueche 24:26 In-Context

24 Wer zu dem Gesetzlosen spricht: Du bist gerecht, den verfluchen die Völker, den verwünschen die Völkerschaften;
25 denen aber, welche gerecht entscheiden, geht es wohl, und über sie kommt Segnung des Guten.
26 Die Lippen küßt, wer richtige Antwort gibt.
27 Besorge draußen deine Arbeit und bestelle sie dir auf dem Felde; hernach magst du dann dein Haus bauen.
28 Werde nicht ohne Ursache Zeuge wider deinen Nächsten; wolltest du denn täuschen mit deinen Lippen?
