Matthew Poole and continuators on Proverbs 27:26

26 The lambs are for thy cloathing , and the goats are the price of the field .

By their wool and skins, either used to cloath thy self with, or sold to purchase all manner of cloathing for thy self and Family.

By the sale whereof thou maist either pay the rent of the field which thou hirest, or purchase Fields or Lands for thy self. Either Goats are put for all cattle, or he mentions Goats, because these might better be spared and sold than sheep, which brought a more certain and constant profit to the owner.
