“Good understanding giveth favour: but the way of transgressors is hard.”
Proverbs 13:15 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 13:15
Good understanding gives favor, but the way of transgressors is hard. Sound judgment (sekhel tov) produces grace/favor; treacherous conduct produces hardship. The verse promises that wisdom eases life's path while wickedness makes it difficult. Transgression's way is 'hard' (etan - enduring, permanent) - wickedness produces lasting difficulty. Wisdom lubricates life; sin creates friction.
