Verse 29. A wicked man deceiueth his neighbour, and leadeth him into a way that is not good.
A Wicked man] He that is head-strong, and wilfully given to transgress the laws of God, in regard whereof the original text calleth him, a man of violence, [deceiveth his neighbour] infecteth the minds of those with whom he converseth, with errors, persuading them of the lawfulness of that which is unlawful, and of safety where is peril; and that that is evil which is good and laudable, and sometimes necessary, [and leadeth him into a way that is not good] corrupteth his conversation with vices, and draweth him unto such courses as are both sinful and hurtful.
