SEV Biblia, Chapter 11:21
¶ Por más pactos que tenga hechos con la muerte, el malo no será absuelto; mas la simiente de los justos escapará.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 11:21
Verse 21. Though hand join in hand ] Let them confederate as they please, to support each other, justice will take care that they escape not punishment. The Hindoos sometimes ratify an engagement by one person laying his right hand on the hand of another. - WARD.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 21. [Though] hand [join] in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished , etc.] Though they give the hand to one another, unite in their counsels, enter into combinations, confederacies, and strict alliances, and join all their force and strength together; or though with both hands, with all their might and main, endeavour to secure themselves, yet they shall not go unpunished. This may be exemplified in the kings of the earth, that will join each other, and gather their armies together, to make war against Christ; when they will be conquered, taken, and slain, ( Revelation 19:19-21). Jarchi interprets it, “from hand to hand”, and explains it thus; from the hand of God into their hand shall come the reward of their work, and shall not go unpunished: to which may be added, even though there may be a succession of parents and children, and their substance may be handed down from the one to the other, yet at last just punishments will take place. To which is opposed, but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered ; these are the seed of the church in all successive ages; the seed that are accounted of by the Lord for a generation; particularly the remnant of the woman’s seed, that keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ; against whom the dragon, the old serpent the devil, was wroth, and went forth to make war, in order utterly to destroy them; but they escaped his hands, were delivered from him, and preserved by the power and grace of God, as a seed to serve him, ( Revelation 12:17).
Matthew Henry Commentary
