Matthew Poole and continuators on Proverbs 18:13

13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it , it is folly and shame unto him.

Before he hath fully heard and considered what another is speaking about it.

It is a shameful folly, though he seek the reputation of a wise man by it, as if he could readily and throughly understand all that another can say before he hath uttered it.
