v. 21. _Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and
prudent in their own sight._
Woe to the intellectually proud. I. To the self-conceited +sceptic,+
who sits in judgment upon the Word of God, and condemns it.[1] II. To
the self-conceited +enthusiast,+ who substitutes his own fancies for
Divine truth. III. To the self-conceited +Pharisee,+ who trusts in
his own works. IV. To the self-conceited +sinner,+ who despises
instruction. V. Woe! for they shall all perish.--_J. Lyth, D.D._
