En este lugar Command the Raven se lee lo siguiente:

15 The rich man’s wealth is his strong city: the destruction of the poor is their poverty.

This may be taken two ways:–

2. . As a representation of the common mistakes both of rich and poor, concerning their outward condition.

(1.)

It will prove that they are not so safe as they imagine; nay, their wealth may perhaps expose them.

(2.) Poor people think themselves undone because they are poor; but it is their mistake: The destruction of the poor is their poverty; it sinks their spirits, and ruins all their comforts; whereas a man may live very comfortably, though he has but a little to live on, if he be but content, and keep a good conscience, and live by faith.

- Matthew Henry Commentary
