Wesley's Notes for Proverbs 27:13

27:11 Reproacheth - For being the father of a wicked son.

27:14 Blesseth - That praises him to his face. A loud voice - That both he, and others, may be sure to take notice of it. Rising early - To shew his great forwardness. A curse - His friend will value this kind of blessing no more than a curse.
