Verse 13. Price. It has none, like other precious things. Baruch 3:15.—In delights is not expressed in Hebrew or Septuagint Calmet.—But to live in misery is hardly to be accounted living, ( Bible.) and the addition restrains the proposition, as some men possess this treasure, though not those who take no pains ( Calmet.) to mortify corrupt nature. Bible.—Chal. “it is not found in the land of the proud, whose life is spent in sin.” Calmet.—True wisdom is found, not in natural, but in supernatural, things. Worthington.
