- 1 Kings 12:6–15
Then King Rehoboam consulted with the elders who had served his father Solomon during his lifetime. “How do you advise me to respond to these people?” he asked.
Commentary on 1 Kings 12:6–151 voice
And King Rehoboam consulted with the old men that stood before Solomon his father, while he yet lived,.... Which was very prudently done; for as these were men in years, and had been his father's counsellors, from whom, do doubt, they had learnt much wisdom, being often in cabinet council with him, they were capable of giving him the best advice: and said, how do you advise, that I may answer this people? what answer would you advise me to give to them, and in what manner?

- 2 Chronicles 10:8

- Psalms 119:9
How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it according to Your word.
Commentary on Psalms 119:91 voice
Let us listen, then, to the master of precaution: "I said, I will pay attention to my ways"; that is, "I said to myself: in the silent biddings of my thoughts, I have enjoined on myself, that I should pay attention to my ways." Some ways there are that we ought to follow; others as to which we ought to pay attention. We must follow the ways of the Lord and pay attention to our own ways, lest they lead us into sin. One can pay attention if one is not hasty in speaking.
Ambrose of Milan· On the Duties of the Clergy 1.2.7, 397Patristic

John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Praise the Lord from the earth. Since the angels have praised, the heaven has praised: let the earth also praise. Let us see which things of the earth praise first. Dragons and all deeps: fire, hail, snow, ice, the spirit of storms, which do his word: mountains and all hills, fruit-bearing trees, and all cedars: beasts, and all cattle, serpents and feathered fowl. After such great things, what is said? After the dragons, after the serpents, after the fire, after the hail, after the beasts and all the cattle?
Jerome· Homily 58, on Psalm 148, 420Patristic
- Psalms 148:13
Let them praise the name of the LORD, for His name alone is exalted; His splendor is above the earth and the heavens.
Commentary on Psalms 148:131 voice
Praise the Lord from the earth. Since the angels have praised, the heaven has praised: let the earth also praise. Let us see which things of the earth praise first. Dragons and all deeps: fire, hail, snow, ice, the spirit of storms, which do his word: mountains and all hills, fruit-bearing trees, and all cedars: beasts, and all cattle, serpents and feathered fowl. After such great things, what is said? After the dragons, after the serpents, after the fire, after the hail, after the beasts and all the cattle?

- Proverbs 1:1–33
These are the proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel,
- Proverbs 2:1–22
My son, if you accept my words and hide my commandments within you,
Commentary on Proverbs 2:1–221 voice
Wisdom is open to all and loves humankind. Anyway, Solomon says, "My son, if you accept my words of instruction and keep them deep within you, your ear will listen to wisdom." This means that the word is sown and kept deep in the soul of the learner as if in the ground. This is spiritual growth.So he adds, "You shall direct your heart to understanding and direct it towards instruction for your son."
Clement of Alexandria· The Stromata Book 1, 215Patristic
- Proverbs 3:1–35

Commentary on Proverbs 3:1–351 voice

Bede· Commentary on Proverbs, 735Patristic
- Proverbs 4:1–27
Listen, my sons, to a father’s instruction; pay attention and gain understanding.
Commentary on Proverbs 4:1–271 voice
Paul wrote to the Corinthians, "You, therefore, follow me." Let us follow him then, because that commandment has been passed down to us. The admonition originally given to the church at Corinth reaches to all Christians of all time in every place. For the apostle Paul was "a teacher of all nations in faith and truth."2As a matter of fact, we get the same sort of teaching from all the saints of old. Solomon, for example, used proverbs, saying, "Hear, my children, the instruction of a father and pay attention to get understanding, for I give you a good gift.
Athanasius of Alexandria· Letter 2.1, 373Patristic
- Proverbs 5:1–23
My son, pay attention to my wisdom; incline your ear to my insight,
Commentary on Proverbs 5:1–231 voice
My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my prudence, that thou mayest guard thy thoughts. For, indeed, nothing is more fugitive than the heart, which deserts us as often as it slips away through bad thoughts. For hence the Psalmist says, My heart hath failed me. Hence, when he returns to himself, he says, Thy servant hath found his heart to pray to Thee. When, therefore, thought is kept under guard, the heart which was wont to fly away is found.
Gregory the Dialogist· The Book of Pastoral Rule, Part 3, Chapter 14, 604Patristic

My son, if you have put up security for your neighbor, if you have struck hands in pledge with a stranger,

- Proverbs 13:1
A wise son heeds his father’s discipline, but a mocker does not listen to rebuke.
Commentary on Proverbs 13:11 voice
"A wise son is the instruction of a father," etc. There is such a great difference between the wise and the foolish man, that the latter, at some point, arrives to teach even the one who had taught him with the advantage of learning, while …
