Forsake? Really!

In Proverbs Chapter 28 we see 3-verses that use the word "LAW.

Proverbs 28:4 They that forsake the law praise the wicked

but such as keep the law contend with them

In verse 4 we see any person that forsakes the law praise the wicked. The word "FORSAKE"  means To quit or leave entirely; to desert; to abandon; to depart from.

When someone departs from something they always fill the void with something else. Here we see a person departing from that which is right; the law to Praise those that do wicked.

PRISE:➡ Commendation bestowed on a person for his personal virtues or worthy actions.

The law that was once cherished is now forsaken and that which was once wrong is now not only being done but virtue and value is being found in doing such actions.

Proverbs 28:7 Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son

but he that is a companion of riotous men shameth his father.

In verse 7 we are quickly told that wisdom is found in keeping the law, but if one chooses to keep company with riotous men (Consisting of riot; tumultuous; partaking of the nature of an unlawful assembly) then they will bring shane to their father. In order to bring shame to their father must mean that their father had taught them better

Proverbs 28:9 He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law

even his prayer shall be abomination.

Here in verse 9 we see one who doesn't want to hear the law and when they do they turn away their ear. They remove themselves so they want have to listen to what is right. The downward trend started when this person began to FORSAKE THE LAW

What was the cost of this FORSAKING?
