Proverbs 13:15
King James Version
10 Jun 2026
“Good understanding giveth favour: but the way of transgressors is hard.”
טוֹב
Taste and see. David does not say understand or agree — he says taste. Towb is goodness you experience, not just believe in. God's goodness is not a theological position. It is something you encounter when you draw near to Him.
