Application 2:

How do you understand it (Proverbs 26:22 The words of a gossip are like delicacies, penetrating into the heart of the people) .)?

Answer: This is the curiosity and lust of carnal people. Listening to the words of the messenger satisfies their greed like eating delicious food, and the heart will be happy and satisfied.

This is an evil taboo for us believers today. When you hear someone spreading gossip, teach him or her the truth. You must resist this weakness yourself.

Application 3:

What do you understand (Proverbs 26:22 The words of a gossip are like delicacies that go deep into the heart of a person.)?

Answer: The words of the messenger are like delicious snacks, which the listeners eat eagerly one bite at a time. They seem to be saying: "Ah, it tastes good! I like to hear it very much. Tell me more!"

Application 4:

What do you understand (Proverbs 26 :22 The words of a messenger are like delicacies that penetrate deeply into people’s hearts)?

Answer: The words of the messenger are like delicious snacks, which the listeners eat eagerly one bite at a time. Not listening to other people's gossip is as difficult as not eating delicious food. No matter which one you taste, it will make you want to try it again. If you don't listen to other people's gossip in the first place, you won't listen to it a second or third time.
