Spreuken 4:2 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 4:2

For I give you good doctrine
Whose author, matter, use, and tendency, are good, and therefore should be received; so the Gospel is called, ( 1 Timothy 4:6 ) ; and no other is here meant: it is the doctrine concerning Wisdom or Christ, as the following verses show; which serves to exalt him, and makes for the good and welfare of immortal souls; and such is the doctrine of the Scriptures, of Christ and his apostles, even all the doctrines and truths of the Gospel; forsake you not my law;
or "doctrine" F15; not the law given on Mount Sinai, as Gersom interprets it; but the doctrine of Christ, which goes out from Mount Zion: this the children of Wisdom should not neglect, relinquish, drop, or depart from; but should keep it, and abide by it.

Spreuken 4:2 In-Context

1 Hoort, gij kinderen! de tucht des vaders, en merkt op, om verstand te weten.
2 Dewijl ik ulieden goede leer geve, verlaat mijn wet niet.
3 Want ik was mijns vaders zoon, teder, en een enige voor het aangezicht mijner moeder.
4 Hij nu leerde mij, en zeide tot mij: Uw hart houde mijn woorden vast, onderhoud mijn geboden, en leef.
5 Verkrijg wijsheid, verkrijg verstand; vergeet niet, en wijk niet van de redenen mijns monds.
