Reformed 1771 · An Exposition of the Old and New Testament, Proverbs 21:24

John Gill, on Prov 21:24

John Gill · 1697–1771
Prov 21:24 · Douay-Rheims
“The proud and the arrogant is called ignorant, who in anger worketh pride.”
On this verse:
“Proud and haughty scorner is his name,.... He shall be called a proud fool, a haughty fellow, a scornful blockhead; he shall get himself an ill name, and be treated with contempt; who dealeth in proud wrath; whose pride shows itself in wrathful expressions and actions; who is proud and passionate in all his dealings with men, and who as it were makes a trade of pride and passion: to none is this character more applicable than to antichrist, the man of sin, that sits in the seat of the scornful; exalts himself above all that is called God, has a mouth speaking blasphemies, and a look more stout than his fellows, and deals in proud wrath against the saints of the most High.”
