Evil » Speech evil speaking » Vain talk condemned
For there are many rebellious men who are empty talkers [just windbags] and deceivers; especially those of the circumcision [those Jews who insist that Gentile believers must be circumcised and keep the Law in order to be saved].
Verse Concepts
For the dream comes through much effort, and the voice of the fool through many words.
Verse Concepts
When there are many words, transgression and offense are unavoidable,
But he who controls his lips and keeps thoughtful silence is wise.
“Shall a multitude of words not be answered?
And should a talkative man [making such a long-winded defense] be acquitted?
“Should he rebuke and argue with useless talk?
Or with words in which there is no benefit?
In all labor there is profit,
But mere talk leads only to poverty.
A [shortsighted] fool always loses his temper and displays his anger,
But a wise man [uses self-control and] holds it back.
the beginning of his talking is foolishness and the end of his talk is wicked madness.
Verse Concepts
therefore prophesy and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God, “For good reason they have made you a desolation, and they crushed you from every side so that you would become a possession of the rest of the nations and you have become the talk and the whispering of the people.”’”
