Guard your steps when you go to the house of God, and be more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil.
All Commentaries on Ecclesiastes 5:1 Go To Ecclesiastes 5
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Few. As none can arrive at the perfect knowledge of God, they should be reserved in speaking of Him. (Worthington)
De Deo etiam vera loqui periculosum. (Cicero, de Nat.)
In prayer, (Calmet) we must not pretend to give him any information, like the heathens, Matthew vi. 7. (Haydock)
