Mishlei 14:24 - False or a Tautology?
עֲטֶרֶת חֲכָמִים עׇשְׁרָם, אִוֶּלֶת כְּסִילִים אִוֶּלֶת:
Length: 46 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (3/14/24), in our morning Mishlei shiur, we learned a VERY strange pasuk. The first half seems false (or, at the very least, misleading) and the second half reads like a tautology. Nevertheless, we were able to come up with several approaches of our own, and we learned through a few approaches from the meforshim. To the surprise of nobody, it ended up being a great pasuk with a lot of practical insight to offer!
