Proverbs 29:22
"An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

An angry man stirreth up strife,.... In families, neighbourhoods, communities, churches, and commonwealths; that is, one that is given to anger, and gives way to it, in whom it prevails

and rules; and a furious man aboundeth in transgression; or, "a master of wrath or fury" (y); one much addicted to it: or, "the husband of wrath": wedded to it, as a man to his wife: or, as the Vulgate Latin version renders it, "who is easy to be angry"; is easily provoked, wrath rises up in him at once; this leads him on to many sins, as cursing, swearing, murder, (y) "dominus furoris", so Vatablus, Piscator, Michaelis.
