Proverbs3:22

22. So shall they be life unto thy soul , and grace to thy neck .

Either 1. to thee or thy Person. They shall prolong and perpetuate thy life and make it life indeed, to wit, pleasant and happy; whereas a miserable life is reputed a kind of Death, and is oft so called. Or, 2. to thy Soul properly so called. They shall quicken and delight and save thy Soul.

Like a beautiful Chain or Ornament about thy Neck, as above v. 3. & Chap. 1. 9.

Marginal references: Vers. 2▪
