SEV Biblia, Chapter 30:13
Hay generación cuyos ojos son altivos, y cuyos párpados son alzados.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 30:13
Verse 13. The third, Those who were full of vanity, pride, and insolence.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 13. [There is] a generation, O how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up .] Above others, on whom they look with scorn and contempt; as those do who have more riches than others, and boast of them; they despise their poor neighbours, and disdain to look upon them: and such also who have more knowledge and wisdom than others, or at least think so; they are puffed up in their fleshly minds, and say of the illiterate or less knowing, as the proud Pharisees did, “this people, who knoweth not the law, are cursed”: and likewise those who fancy themselves more holy and righteous than others; these, in a scornful manner, say, “stand by thyself, I am holier than thou”; and thank God they are not as other men are, as publicans and sinners; (see Proverbs 19:4,7 John 7:49 Isaiah 65:4 Luke 18:11,12). Hence Pliny says, that in the eyebrows there is a part of the mind; those especially show haughtiness; that pride has a receptacle elsewhere, but here it has its seat; it is bred in the heart, but here it comes and here it hangs: wherefore Juvenal calls pride and haughtiness, “grande supercilium”; and proud haughty persons are said to be supercilious.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 11-14 - In every age there are monsters of ingratitude who ill-treat their parents. Many persuade themselves they are holy persons, whose heart are full of sin, and who practise secret wickedness. There are other whose lofty pride is manifest. There have also been cruel monsters in every age.
