“Delight is not seemly for a fool; much less for a servant to have rule over princes.”
Proverbs 19:10 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 19:10
Delight is not seemly for a fool; much less for a servant to have rule over princes. Luxury doesn't fit fools; leadership by servants over princes fits even less. The verse addresses incongruity - circumstances unsuited to character or station. Fools with prosperity waste it; servants ruling princes inverts proper order. This doesn't endorse rigid class systems but recognizes that character should match circumstance. When it doesn't, dysfunction results.
