Proverbs 28:17-29:17, Chiastic structure (Additional studies: Proverbs Index)
In the 2A pair, the fall of the wicked is again repeated as the common theme. But in meditating what all the surrounding verses have to do with it, since they are forced into a single unit by the other elements of the structure, I realized that just as a wise son, who became wise by the correction of his father, gives his father rest, and a wise king gives his throne rest by judging truthfully, so does the one who walks blamelessly. He will be saved by his wisdom, which is to say, by his uprightness. And by “saved,” we are not talking about eternal salvation … the context of the book of Proverbs speaks to the wise management of the affairs of this life, on this side of heaven.
