Commentary on Proverbs 25:13
A faithful messenger to his senders is like snow's cold in harvest time - refreshing to his masters. The Hebrew 'emuwnah' (faithfulness/reliability) and 'tsir' (messenger/ambassador) describe trustworthy communication. The snow imagery: harvest occurred in hot season; cold snow was refreshing relief. Similarly, faithful messenger refreshes those who sent him - reliable information, accurate reporting, trustworthy representation. Reliability is refreshing in world of unreliability.
