Proverbs 14:20

[ <1 minutes to read ]

The poor is hated even of his own neighbor: but the rich hath many friends.
– Proverbs 14:20

[T]his proverb is a wise observation of reality. The poor are those without resources and means (Proverbs 10:15; Luke 14:13-14). Consequently, they don’t have so many friends as the rich do. We would call these sorts of friends as belonging to the fair-weather class (Proverbs 19:4, 6).
