Proverbs 11:1
11:1 a Here, honest practices are applied to the business world (see also 16:11 b; 20:10 c, 23 d; Lev 19:35-37 e; Deut 25:13-15 f; Ezek 45:10 g; Hos 12:7-8 h; Mic 6:11 i).• Scales were often made of two metal bowls suspended from a crossbar. The unit of currency, the shekel, comes from the verb meaning “to weigh” (see Amos 8:5-6 j).
