Proverbs 29:14 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 29:14

The king that faithfully judgeth the poor
That truly executes justice and judgment among all his subjects, particularly the poor, who are too often neglected, because they cannot afford persons to plead their cause: such a king was Solomon; and especially the Messiah, of whom he was a type, ( Psalms 72:1 Psalms 72:2 Psalms 72:4 Psalms 72:12 Psalms 72:13 ) ; his throne shall be established for ever;
be secure to him as long as he lives, and to his posterity after; justice to all men, and mercy to the poor, are the support of a prince's throne; see ( Proverbs 20:28 ) ( 25:5 ) .
