“When he speaketh fair, believe him not: for there are seven abominations in his heart. speaketh: Heb. maketh his voice gracious”
Proverbs 26:25 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 26:25
When he speaks graciously, don't believe him; seven abominations are in his heart. The Hebrew 'chanan qowl' (makes voice gracious) and 'sheba' towebah' (seven abominations) warns against trusting pleasant speech from known deceivers. Seven represents completeness - the dissembler's heart is completely corrupt. Smooth words from evil person shouldn't be believed regardless of how convincing. This requires remembering character despite charming presentation. Wisdom evaluates source, not just message.
