SEV Biblia, Chapter 30:22
Por el siervo cuando reinare; y por el loco cuando se saciare de pan;
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 22. For a servant, when he reigneth , etc.] Being unfit for it through his education, not having been trained up in and learned the arts of government and maxims of it; and through the disposition of his mind, which is mean, abject, and servile; and as he has been used himself when a servant, so he will use others and through his circumstances, being poor, he will take oppressive methods to become rich; and being raised from a low estate, he is the more imperious, proud, and haughty f872 ; all which and more make his reign intolerable; (see Proverbs 19:10 28:3). This may be applied to antichrist, the “servus servorum”, who in a haughty, tyrannical, and insolent manner, exalts himself above all that is called God: and reigns over the kings of the earth, at least has done so, and that in such a manner as was unbearable; deposing kings at pleasure, disposing of their kingdoms, and trampling upon their necks, and making their subjects his vassals; (see 2 Thessalonians 2:4 Revelation 17:12,13,17,18); and a fool, when he is filled with meat ; as Nabal at his feast, when he behaved so intolerably in his cups towards David and his messengers, that he determined on his destruction, had not Abigail interposed, ( 1 Samuel 25:10,11,36); and there are many such fools, who having their bellies full of food, and their heads full of liquor, are very overbearing in company, and give their tongues such a loose as is very disturbing: or this may intend such fools, or wicked men, who are full of wealth and riches, and being purse proud, are exceeding haughty and insolent; set their mouths against the heaven, and blaspheme God that is in it; and their tongues walk through the earth, and spare none, but lash all in an insufferable manner. These disquiet families, neighbourhoods, communities, and commonwealths; (see Psalm 73:7-9).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 21-23 - Four sorts of persons are very troublesome. Men of low origin and bas spirit, who, getting authority, become tyrants. Foolish and violent me indulging in excesses. A woman of a contentious spirit and viciou habits. A servant who has obtained undue influence. Let those who Providence has advanced from low beginnings, carefully watch agains that sin which most easily besets them.
