Proverbs 4:20-22:
My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.
Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
Notes on Proverbs 4:20-22:
Having an ear to hear the Word of God will keep you healthy!
The Hebrew word translated health in verse 22 is also translated cure, healing and remedy in other Old Testament verses. It clearly refers to physical health. You can be sure of this without a concordance or any knowledge of Hebrew by the simple fact that this health is “to all your flesh.”
