Proverbs 25:27

You might like honey. But you cannot eat only honey. So you make a mistake if there is too much honey in your meal.

This man also has made a mistake. He wants to be a great man. So he pretends that he is already a great man. But he is not a great man. Instead, he is stupid.

This man ought to be humble. Then other people will decide whether the man is really great.
