#1:2 instruction; (i-5)
 'Wisdom' here and in ver. 7 is _chokmah_. 'Instruction' means
 also, 'correction,' 'warning,' 'discipline,' Job 36.10.

#1:3 wisdom, (k-6)
 _Sachal_, it means 'intelligence,' 'circumspection,' and
 'understanding,' as in ch. 3.4, also 'success,' 'good esteem:'
 see 'succeeded better,' 1Sam. 18.30.

#1:4 simple, (l-6)
 'Simple,' in this book, means one lacking in the powers of
 the soul and mind, and hence easily enticed and misled.

#1:4 discretion. (m-13)
 Or 'reflection,' 'sagacity.'

#1:5 gain (n-15)
 Or 'get:' so ch. 4.5,7.

#1:7 fools (o-10)
 _Eveel_. It is the generic word, but has two shades of
 meaning according as it is opposed to _chakam_, 'wise,' or
 _aroom_, 'prudent,' 'wary,' ch. 12.16. But the idea of
 'wickedness' is not absent from it. As to details, _kesil_ is
 usually rendered 'foolish,' as ver. 22; ch. 12.23, _nabal_ is
 rather 'vile,' 'impious:' see 1Sam. 25.3,25.

#1:7 wisdom (p-12)
 See ver. 2.

#1:8 teaching (q-13)
 Or 'law,' and so chs. 3.1; 6.20; 7.2; 13.14.

 See Note h, Ps. 6.5.

 Job 6.13; 12.16.

#2:8 ones. (g-14)
 Or 'saints;' _chasid_, see Ps. 30.4.

#2:9 judgment (h-7)
 'Just judgment' or 'justice.'

#2:9 path. (i-12)
 The word is difficult to render. It is properly 'a path going
 round,' and hence used for the 'entrenchment' of a war camp, as
 'wagon-defence' in 1Sam. 17.20. It is applied, as in Ps. 17.5;
 23.3, to God's path for the saint, which does not always lead
 where we expect, or so that we can see straight on in it; and
 also to the shifting ways of the wicked, as ver. 18; and so in
 ver. 15, where the plural is rendered collectively 'course.'

#2:22 land, (g-10)
 Or 'earth.'

 Or 'sense,' 'wisdom,' or 'esteem:' see Note, ch. 1.3.
