Mishlei 17:27 - Knowledge, Understanding, and Minimizing Speech

חוֹשֵׂךְ אֲמָרָיו יוֹדֵעַ דָּעַת, (וקר) [יְקַר] רוּחַ אִישׁ תְּבוּנָה:

Length: 1 hour 30 minutes
Synopsis: This evening (6/1/26), in our Monday Night Mishlei shiur, we had another "skeleton crew" day with a bunch of regulars absent, but we ALSO had a legendary surprise guest: our "YouTube friends," whose comments and contributions you may have seen on YouTube or heard me quote in shiur. (One of my other talmidim, who wasn't in the shiur, exclaimed, "That's like a YouTube face reveal." Accurate!) Tonight's pasuk was tough: we got at least FOUR half-baked ideas (three of our own, plus Metzudas David) before Rabbeinu Yonah saved the day with a fully baked loaf. And the real question is whether next week's pasuk will shift this week's analysis, seeing as how so many meforshim connect the two. Tune in to find out! It'll be our last Mishlei shiur before we break for the summer.
