Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
He that winketh with the eye - Instead of the latter clause, on which see Proverbs 10:8, the Septuagint has, ̔ ̔ · "but he that reproveth with freedom, maketh peace." This is also the reading of the Syriac and Arabic. A faithful open reproving of sin is more likely to promote the peace of society than the passing it by slightly, or taking no notice of it; for if the wicked turn to God at the reproof, the law of peace will soon be established in his heart, and the law of kindness will flow from his tongue.
