Commentary on Proverbs 3:24
Wisdom promises peaceful sleep without fear. The Hebrew 'pachad' (fear/dread) describes anxious worry that disrupts rest. Sleep quality reflects internal peace - the guilty and anxious sleep poorly; the righteous rest well. This verse promises that wisdom produces clear conscience and trust in God's providence, enabling peaceful sleep. Proverbs 3:24-26 expand this theme: wisdom delivers from fear because God is your confidence.
