Gill's Notes on the Bible
Better [is] the poor that walketh in his uprightness,....
:-;
than [he that is] perverse [in his] ways, though he [be] rich; or, "in [his] two ways" c: that halts between two ways, or makes use of both; sometimes turns to the one, to the right hand, and sometimes to the other, to the left hand; or that pretends to the one, and walks in the other; would be thought to be a virtuous and religious man, and to walk in the paths of righteousness and truth, when he walks in those of sin and wickedness. And now a poor man that walks evenly and uprightly, according to the word of God and truth of the Gospel, in the commandments and ordinances of the Lord, and in the paths of faith and holiness, is better than he; more honourable, more comfortable, and happy in life and in death; he has grace now, and will have glory hereafter.
c ×ר××× Heb. "duabus viis", Piscator, Cocceius; "pervertens duas vias", Baynus; "duplici via", Michaelis; "gemina via", Schultens, so Ben Melech.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Perverse in his ways - literally, âPerverse in his double ways.â Compare Ecclesiasticus 2:12 and James 1:8.
