Read the Story
Yahweh's name is a strong tower: the righteous run to him, and are safe. In Bible times, people ran into a tall tower to be safe from enemies.
He who answers before he hears, that is folly and shame to him. A fool has no delight in understanding, but only in revealing his own opinion.
Death and life are in the power of the tongue. Our words can hurt or help. There is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
