A sound heart is the life of the flesh: but envy the rottenness of the bones.
Un corazón en paz da vida a todo el cuerpo, pero los celos pudren desde adentro.
La paz interior trae vida y salud, mientras que los celos destruyen desde adentro.
📚 Contexto Histórico
The Book of Proverbs is a collection of wise sayings attributed to King Solomon, written during the time of the united monarchy of Israel around 900 BC, as part of ancient Israel's tradition of passing down practical wisdom for daily life. These proverbs often draw from everyday observations to teach moral and spiritual lessons, emphasizing how internal character shapes one's well-being. In this verse, the contrast between a sound heart and envy reflects the cultural value placed on inner peace and the destructive effects of jealousy in a society that prioritized communal harmony and faithfulness to God.
