📚 Contexto Histórico
In ancient Israel, during the time of King Solomon, the Book of Proverbs was compiled as a collection of wise sayings to instruct people on practical and moral living in a society where wealth and status were significant influences. The phrase "evil eye" was a cultural idiom referring to greed or envy, often used to describe someone whose selfish desires lead to poor decisions. This proverb fits into the broader biblical wisdom tradition that warns against the perils of hasty pursuits, emphasizing that true prosperity comes from godly character rather than shortcuts.
