Treasury of Scriptural Knowledge VERSE (11) - Pr 11:1; 20:10,23 Le 19:35,36 De 25:13-15 Eze 45:10 Ho 12:7
SEV Biblia, Chapter 16:11 ¶ Peso y balanzas de juicio son del SEÑOR; obra suya son todas las pesas de la bolsa.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 16:11 Verse 11. All the weights of the bag are his ] Alluding, probably, to the standard weights laid up in a bag in the sanctuary, and to which all weights in common use in the land were to be referred, in order to ascertain whether they were just: but some think the allusion is to the weights carried about by merchants in their girdles, by which they weigh the money, silver and gold, that they take in exchange for their merchandise. As the Chinese take no coin but gold and silver by weight, they carry about with them a sort of small steelyard, by which they weigh those metals taken in exchange.
Ver. 11. A just weight and balance [are] the Lord’s , etc.] These are of his devising; what he has put into the heart, of men to contrive and make use of, for the benefit of mankind, for the keeping and maintaining truth and justice in commercial affairs; these are of his appointing, commanding, and approving, ( Leviticus 19:35,36); all the weights of the bag [are] his work ; or, “all the stones” f466 ; greater or smaller, which were formerly used in weighing, and were kept in a bag for that purpose; these are by the Lord’s appointment and order. This may be applied to the Scriptures of truth, which are of God; are the balance of the sanctuary, in which every doctrine is to be weighed and tried; what agrees with them is to be received, and what is found wanting is to be rejected. The Targum is, “his works, all of them, are weights of truth.”
Verses 11 - To observe justice in dealings between man and man is God' appointment.
