He that withholds grain, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the head of him that sells it.
All Commentaries on Proverbs 11:26 Go To Proverbs 11
Gregory The Dialogist
AD 604
It is well said by Solomon, “He that hides corn shall be cursed among the people.” To hide corn is to retain with oneself the words of sacred preaching. Among the people any such one is cursed, since, for the fault of mere silence, he is condemned in the punishment of the many whom he could have corrected. .
