Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counselors there is safety.
All Commentaries on Proverbs 11:14 Go To Proverbs 11
Bede
AD 735
Lest you think that a friend’s crime which you are unable to correct should be concealed, it rightly says that a people are corrupted without a governor but are saved where there is abundant counsel. [This is said] in order to show that the deed you are unable to amend alone should be revealed to many, so that it may be corrected by the unanimous diligence of all. .
