The intentions of a man’s heart are deep waters, but a man of understanding draws them out.
Commentary on Proverbs 20:52 voices
Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water,.... Pure and undisturbed, but secret, hidden, and hard to be come at: such are the things of the spirit of a man, the thoughts of his mind, the devices of his heart; which, though easily known by the searcher of hearts, are not easily penetrated into by men; or it is not easily got out of them what is in them, especially in some men, who are very close and reserved.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
The contest between reticence on the one side and pertinacity in search on the other is represented as by a parable. The well may be very deep (compare the marginal reference), but the man of understanding has enough skill to draw up the water even to the last drop. Every question is, as it were, a turning of the windlass.
