Gill's Notes on the Bible
Wealth maketh many friends,.... Or "adds" f; it increases the number of them: so the poet g, "donec eris felix, multos numerabis amicos"; and to this agrees what the wise man says,
Proverbs 14:20;
but the poor is separated from his neighbour; or "friend" h; he will not visit him as he did in his prosperity, nor suffer him to come into his house or company, or come near him; he is separated from his affection, friendship, and presence: so another poet i,
"if thou art rich, thou wilt have many friends; but, if poor, few.''
f יסיף. "addit", Junius Tremellius, Piscator. g Ovid. h מרעהו "ab amico sua", Pagninus, Montanus, Baynus, Junius & Tremeliius, Piscator, Michaelis "a sodali sua", Schultens. i Theognis.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
