Proverbs 16 - Better Is A Little

v.5 will not go unpunished. The legal terminology indicates that the judgment of God, not merely natural retribution, is involved. In the same way, there is a judicial act of God involved in the escape of the righteous from judgment.
v.6 steadfast love and faithfulness. Summarizes the attitude of the wise to the Lord (3: 3; 14: 22; 20: 28). The saying is a rebuke to formal religion without true faith.
v.7 please the LORD. See Eccl. 2: 26 and Eph. 5: 10. Following God’s way has reconciling and healing effects on personal relationships.
v.8 A number of proverbs have this form of direct comparison using the “better ... than” formula (15: 16, 17; 16: 8, 19, 32; 17: 1, 12; 19: 1). The fear of the Lord brings its own riches.

5 Everyone who is arrogant in heart is an abomination to the Lord;
be assured, he will not go unpunished.
6 By steadfast love and faithfulness iniquity is atoned for,
and by the fear of the Lord one turns away from evil.
7 When a man's ways please the Lord,
he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.
8 Better is a little with righteousness
than great revenues with injustice.

Presented without further comment today. I don't really have anything much more to add.

What is truth? This question raised by Pilate, when Jesus Christ stood trial before him, exposed his own worldview. He lived in a world in which absolute truth did not exist. I think Pilate’s voice was dismissive and filled with disdain. I imagine he sneered in mockery, angry that Christ dared to speak with truth. Though he looked straight into the face of the incarnate Truth, he could not discern it. Pilate was like so many today, a postmodernist, but one living in premodern times.

What is truth? It is defined as that which conforms with fact or reality. It is genuineness, veracity, or actuality. In a word, truth is reality. It is how things actually are. Theologically, truth is that which is consistent with the mind, will, character, glory, and being of God. Truth is the self-disclosure of God Himself. It is what it is because God declares it so and made it so. All truth must be defined in terms of God, whose very nature is truth.

God the Father is “the God of truth” (Ps. 31:5; Isa. 65:16, NASB and hereafter). Jesus Christ is “full of grace and truth” (John 1:14). In fact, He is “the truth” (John 14:6). The Holy Spirit is “the Spirit of truth” (John 14:17; John 15:26; John 16:13). Paul calls Scripture “the word of truth” (2 Tim. 2:15). Jesus prayed, “Your word is truth” (John 17:17). Everything about God is true. God always tells it like it is.

How valuable is the truth? Its worth is more “than gold, yes, than much fine gold” (Ps. 19:10). John Calvin says, “Nothing is deemed more precious by God than truth.” No one can be saved without the truth. Nor can anyone be sanctified or strengthened without it.
