“Better is the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.”
Better the poor whose walk is blameless than the rich whose ways are perverse—an affirmation that moral integrity surpasses economic advantage, establishing the hierarchy of values. The theological significance involves the principle of the worthlessness of ill-gained wealth.
