PROVERBS—NOTE ON Proverbs 10:22 This verse, at the center of vv. Proverbs 10:12, teaches an important truth about both the source and the nature of wealth. Since it is the blessing of the LORD that makes rich, one must seek wealth through righteous means. A person’s hope should come not from material things but from the Lord who provides (see vv. Proverbs 10:23). he adds no sorrow with it. When the Lord gives material blessing, he gives it freely and with joy.
