Proverbs 1:30 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 1:30
Wisdom explains why prayers won't be answered: 'They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.' The repetition from v. 25 emphasizes the cause-effect relationship. Their comprehensive rejection ('none... all') produced comprehensive abandonment. 'Despised' (Hebrew: na'ats, reject with contempt) shows active scorn, not mere neglect. God's judicial abandonment matches their volitional rejection. This demonstrates the justice of eternal punishment—it corresponds to willful, total rejection of available grace. Hell's inhabitants chose it by rejecting salvation.
