Pro 21:9 | MHM | STEP | Better to Live Alone Than With Quarrels This verse talks about the trouble that comes from living with someone who is always angry and arguing. A person who has a wife that often scolds or fights will find it hard to enjoy peace at home. Even if the house is big and beautiful, constant arguments can make it feel uncomfortable and lonely. This kind of situation can make a man feel embarrassed and unhappy, and it can ruin the joy of being with family and friends. v. 9 : The Bible says, It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house . Sometimes, a man may feel he has no choice but to leave the main part of the house and find a quiet corner on the roof, just to escape the noise and anger. He does this not because he wants to leave his home, but because it is better to be alone than to be in the middle of constant fighting. It is wiser to find peace in a small place than to stay in a big house filled with arguments.
