The wisdom of Proverbs shows us the way forward:
Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.
It might be too long to fit on a bumper sticker, but Proverbs shows us the way out of the mess we’ve gotten ourselves. Wisdom proves it! History proves it!
Old Testament scholar W. McKane in his commentary on Proverbs makes this biting remark about righteousness exalting a nation: “A land gets the statesmen it deserves.”
