  3. A Fool mockswise counsel and correction • אֱוִיל or אִוֶּלֶת – (ev-eel) • word is translate fool or foolish man and it refers to a man who despises wisdom, mocks when guilty and is quarrelsome and licentious. • כְּסִיל – (ke-seel) • word is translated fool or foolish and it refers to the arrogant, simpleton, dullard.

  4. Introduction • The book of Proverbs uses two primary Hebrew words to describe the fool in 83 different verses in the book of Proverbs. Much of the book of Proverbs is written to the son of Solomon urging his son to embrace wisdom and reject foolishness. It is in the book of Proverbs that we realize that our natural bent from youth is the path of folly (Proverbs 22:15). If this bent is not broken then a young fool will progress into an adolescent fool and eventually a full-grown adult fool! It is the intent of today’s message to paint for each of us a Biblical portrait of the fool and then call each of us to remove those portions of our own self-portrait that bear the marks of the fool.

  5. A Fool mockswise counsel and correction • Proverbs 1:7 • The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, But fools despise wisdom and instruction. • Proverbs 14:3 • In the mouth of a fool is a rod of pride, But the lips of the wise will preserve them. • Proverbs 14:9 • Fools mock at sin, But among the upright there is favor. • Proverbs 14:16 • A wise man fears and departs from evil, But a fool rages and is self-confident. • Proverbs 14:29 • He who is slow to wrath has great understanding, But he who is impulsive exalts folly.

  6. a fool casts off restraintand authority • Proverbs 12:15–16 • The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, But he who heeds counsel is wise. 16 A fool’s wrath is known at once, But a prudent man covers shame. • Proverbs 13:16 • Every prudent man acts with knowledge, But a fool lays open his folly. • Proverbs 14:29 • He who is slow to wrath has great understanding, But he who is impulsive exalts folly.

  7. a fool casts off restraintand authority • Proverbs 14:7–8 • Go from the presence of a foolish man, When you do not perceive in him the lips of knowledge. 8 The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way, But the folly of fools is deceit. • Proverbs 15:2 • The tongue of the wise uses knowledge rightly, But the mouth of fools pours forth foolishness. • Proverbs 18:2 • A fool has no delight in understanding, But in expressing his own heart. • Proverbs 29:11 • A fool vents all his feelings, But a wise man holds them back.

  8. a fool invites the school of hardknocks • Proverbs 11:29 • He who troubles his own house will inherit the wind, And the fool will be servant to the wise of heart. • Proverbs 17:10 • Rebuke is more effective for a wise man Than a hundred blows on a fool. • Proverbs 18:6–7 • A fool’s lips enter into contention, And his mouth calls for blows. 7 A fool’s mouth is his destruction, And his lips are the snare of his soul. • Proverbs 27:22 • Though you grind a fool in a mortar with a pestle along with crushed grain, Yet his foolishness will not depart from him.

  9. a fool invites the school of hardknocks • Proverbs 26:3–12 • 3A whip for the horse, A bridle for the donkey, And a rod for the fool’s back. 4 Do not answer a fool according to his folly, Lest you also be like him. 5 Answer a fool according to his folly, Lest he be wise in his own eyes. 6 He who sends a message by the hand of a fool Cuts off his own feet and drinks violence. 7 Like the legs of the lame that hang limp Is a proverb in the mouth of fools. 8 Like one who binds a stone in a sling Is he who gives honor to a fool. 9 Like a thorn that goes into the hand of a drunkard Is a proverb in the mouth of fools. 10 The great God who formed everything Gives the fool his hire and the transgressor his wages. 11 As a dog returns to his own vomit, So a fool repeats his folly. 12 Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

  10. Big Idea:Don’t Settle for a Life of Foolishness 2A fool has no delight in understanding, But in expressing his own heart. 6A fool’s lips enter into contention, And his mouth calls for blows. 7A fool’s mouth is his destruction, And his lips are the snare of his soul. Proverbs 18:2, 6-7
