Does Proverbs 10:15 contradict Proverbs 11:28?
A rich man's wealth is his strong city. The poverty of the poor is their ruin. But over and over again, we've seen that God has rendered wealth meaningless and that He has lifted up the poor. Even in Proverbs 11:28 he says, whoever trusts in his riches will fall. So what is Solomon trying to say here? Is he contradicting himself?
