“For the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof: but by a man of understanding and knowledge the state thereof shall be prolonged.”
When a country is rebellious, it has many rulers, but a ruler with discernment and knowledge maintains order—a statement of the relationship between political stability and wise leadership, establishing that disorder results from the absence of wise rule. The theological significance involves the principle that wisdom in governance produces stability.
