Commentary on Proverbs 3:30
Don't contend without cause. The Hebrew 'riyb' (strive/quarrel) describes legal or personal disputes. Picking fights without legitimate reason reveals foolishness and contentious spirit. Wisdom pursues peace and avoids unnecessary conflict. This verse doesn't prohibit necessary confrontation but condemns quarrelsomeness. Peaceable character marks the wise; contentiousness marks fools.
