Proverbs 23:8

Adam Clarke
Bible Commentary

The morsel which thou hast eaten - On reflection thou wilt even blame thyself for having accepted his invitation.

Matthew Henry
Concise Bible Commentary
Do not make thyself burdensome to any, especially those not sincere. When we are called by God to his feast, and to let our souls delight themselves, Isa 25:6; 55:2, we may safely partake of the Bread of life. 9. It is our duty to take all fit occasions to speak of Divine things; but if what a wise man says will not be heard, let him hold his peace. 10,11. The fatherless are taken under God's special protection. He is their Redeemer, who will take their part; and he is mighty, almighty.
