Matthew Poole and continuators on Proverbs 29:3

3 VVhoso loveth wisdom , rejoyceth his father: but he that keepeth company with harlots , spendeth his substance .

And therefore hateth and escheweth all folly and wickedness.

Whereby he plainly discovers himself to want Wisdom; of which see Prov. 7. 7, &c.

Whereby he not onely ruineth himself; but also grieveth his Father, as is implied from the opposite clause.
