Treasury of Scriptural Knowledge: Proverbs: Proverbs Chapter 30
Treasury of Scriptural Knowledge, by R.A. Torrey, [ca. 1880]
Overview
Pro 30:1, Agur's confession of his faith; Pro 30:7, The two points of his prayer; Pro 30:10, The meanest are not to be wronged; Pro 30:11, Four wicked generations; Pro 30:15, Four things insatiable; Pro 30:17, Parents are not to be despised; Pro 30:18, Four things hard to be known; Pro 30:21, Four things intolerable; Pro 30:24, Four things exceeding wise; Pro 30:29, Four things stately; Pro 30:32, Wrath is to be prevented.
Agur: Agur was probably a public teacher, and Ithiel and Ucal, his pupils; and this was the massa, or oracle, which he delivered, not by his own wisdom, but by the Holy Spirit, for the benefit of man; and which, it is probable, was added by "the men of Hezekiah."
