But now he wages war against<br/>wisdom, and whatever prudence he sees in a learned man, he does not take to be<br/>incited by enthusiasm. For a wise man<br/>speaks words of knowledge, words of thanks, which are of use to those that hear<br/>them, but the lips of a fool do not receive what is said, as it is said; on the<br/>contrary they try to trip up a wise man and make him similar to a fool. And in fact a wise man is taught when a<br/>foolish man speaks in his ear, and you could almost say that his words are lost<br/>in the deep swell. Therefore he is<br/>blessed, who speaks in the ear of a wise man.<br/><i>— Commentary on Ecclesiastes</i></p>","source_html_sha256":"6caed0d9a067fa2d9a1d0d5151c56df01a8a2710c64e661a8a16107b1bc5e7dd","source_module":"ECF","source_row_id":4062,"source_url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/commentary/ecf/","text_sha256":"f3c7929364d6a2e04f998af575cf14aa7ee7866319944fbd61fb46dbea3b9d4a","translator":null,"work":null}
