- Proverbs 25:18
Like a club or sword or sharp arrow is a man who bears false witness against his neighbor.
Commentary on Proverbs 25:182 voices
A false witness is as destructive to reputation, as such weapons to the body (Pr 24:28). beareth . . . witness--literally, "answereth questions," as before a judge, against his neighbor.
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871Reformed
He that has been struck by a stone goes to a physician, but sharper than a stone are the strokes of calumny. For, as Solomon has said, "A false witness is a war club, and a sword, and a sharp arrow," and its wounds truth alone is able to cure. If truth is set at naught, the wounds grow worse and worse.
Athanasius of Alexandria· DEFENSE BEFORE CONSTANTIUS 12, 373Patristic
