PROVERBS 28:15 — KING JAMES VERSION 0
“As a roaring lion, and a ranging bear; so is a wicked ruler over the poor people.”
Like a roaring lion or a charging bear is a wicked ruler over a helpless people—a comparison of tyrannical rule to predatory beasts, establishing the devastation wrought by corrupt authority. The theological significance involves the principle of the particular harm caused by wicked leadership.
