It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory.
No es bueno comer demasiada miel, y de la misma manera, no es honorable que las personas busquen su propia alabanza.
Así como comer demasiada miel es malo, buscar la propia gloria también lo es.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Proverbs is part of the wisdom literature in the Old Testament, attributed mainly to King Solomon and compiled during the reign of King Hezekiah around the 8th century BC. In ancient Israelite culture, honey was a prized delicacy representing sweetness and abundance, but overindulgence in it could lead to discomfort, serving as a metaphor for excess. This verse uses that everyday example to caution against the folly of self-glorification, emphasizing that true wisdom involves restraint and humility.
