Contextual Overview

12 I wysdome dwell with counsell, and finde out knowledge and vnderstanding. 13 The feare of the Lorde abhorreth wickednes, pryde, disdayne, and the euil way, and a mouth that speaketh wicked thinges I vtterly abhorre. 14 Counsell is mine, and direction, I am vnderstanding, and I haue strength. 15 Through me kinges raigne, and princes make iust lawes. 16 By me princes beare rule, and noble men do iudge the earth. 17 I am louing vnto those that loue me: and they that seeke me early, shall finde me. 18 Riches and honour are with me, yea durable riches and righteousnes. 19 My fruite is better then golde and pretious stones, and mine encrease more worth then fine siluer. 20 I wyll guyde thee in the way of righteousnes, and in the midst of the pathes of iudgement: 21 That I maye stablishe the inhetaunce of them that loue me, and encrease their treasure.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

I lead in the way of righteousness,.... As a king his subjects, a shepherd his flock; as a guide to persons that are ignorant and out of the way; as parents their children, teaching them to go; or as a master his scholars: and the way Wisdom, or Christ, leads his people in, is "the way of righteousness"; the doctrine of righteousness, or the way and manner of a sinner's justification in the sight of God; all men are out of the way of it, and are ignorant of the right way; Christ leads them into it: he leads them off of their own righteousness by showing that it does not deserve the name of one; that it is unacceptable to God, unprofitable to him, and insufficient to justify them before him; and he leads them to his own righteousness, which he has wrought out; and shows them that this is answerable to the demands of law and justice, is acceptable to God, and imputed by him without works; and this he does in his word and by his Spirit: and in this way of righteousness he leads them into his Father's presence with acceptance; to himself, in which he beholds them with pleasure; and to eternal glory, which gives them a title to it: he also leads into the practice of righteousness; he teaches them, and they learn of him works of righteousness; he goes before them by way of example, and he gives them his Spirit and grace to enable them to perform them; and which may more especially be intended in the next clause;

in the midst of the paths of judgment: of truth and holiness; in his commandments and ordinances; in all which they are led not against their wills but with them; and not only walk but run with the greatest cheerfulness in those ways and paths of his.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Proverbs 8:20. I lead in the way of righteousness — Nothing but the teaching that comes from God by his word and Spirit can do this.
