word: Pro 15:23, Pro 24:26; Ecc 12:10; Isa 50:4 fitly spoken: Heb. spoken upon his wheels is like: Rather "is like golden apples (tappuchim, in Arabic, tuffach), in baskets (maskeeyoth, in Arabic, shakeekat), of silver." A word spoken with propriety, opportunely, and suitably to the occasion, is as much in its place, and as conspicuously beautiful, as the golden fruit which appears through the apertures of an exquisitely wrought silver basket.
