Proverbs 6: 12-14 ___________________ _________ A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth.~~~~ He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers; ~~~~~~ Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord. ____________________________ A proud look is the first thing listed in the six things God hates in Proverbs 6: 16-19 Sowing discord is an abomination to him. _____________________________ What does God mean by a proud look?

AV Pr 6:17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,



I wish we could post pictures here. I want to post a screenshot of the Hebrew transliteration of those words. The original work translated as "a proud look" is from Strongs # H7311

רוּם

rûm

room

A primitive root; to be high actively to rise or raise (in various applications, literally or figuratively): - bring up, exalt (self), extol, give, go up, haughty, heave (up), (be, lift up on, make on, set up on, too) high (-er, one), hold up, levy, lift (-er) up, (be) lofty, (X a-) loud, mount up, offer (up), + presumptuously, (be) promote (-ion), proud, set up, tall (-er), take (away, off, up), breed worms.



I think it means to have eyes that exalt oneself.

Thank you, gracegrace. I know God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble. I pray I can always be humble.

Psalm 101:5 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud look will I not suffer. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To me a 'proud look', a 'high look', comes from within. A person who thinks they're ALWAYS RIGHT , and talks down to those with opinions that are different. If they offend another, they're too high and mighty to offer an apology ( cause they were right. Lol) The proud look and high look starts in the heart, and shows up in actions, words, deeds. God Hates it. I mean, wow, it's on the List with 'hands that shed innocent blood'.
