Commentary on Proverbs 13:18
Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuses instruction, but he that regards reproof shall be honored. Rejecting teaching brings both material want and social disgrace. Heeding correction brings honor. This verse links intellectual humility with practical outcomes - teachability leads to flourishing; unteachability leads to ruin. The contrast emphasizes that consequences follow character - proud resistance produces shame; humble receptivity produces honor.
