\u201c<\/strong><\/em>Li<\/strong><\/em>ke snow in summer, or rain during harvest, so is honour given to a fool.\u201d<\/strong><\/em> This is not just about bad timing. This is about moral chaos. It’s nature being violated. Agricultural sabotage. Snow in an Israeli summer would be a joke if it weren’t so deadly. Rain during harvest isn\u2019t refreshing\u2014it\u2019s ruinous. It makes a mess of what should have been the reward of hard work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That\u2019s what it\u2019s like when you put a fool on a pedestal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Hebrew word for fool here isn\u2019t some lovable idiot. It\u2019s kesil<\/em>\u2014the hard-headed mocker who refuses to learn, who doubles down on stupidity with swagger. It\u2019s the guy who tweets arrogance, the politician who won\u2019t read a book, the influencer who drowns out wisdom with noise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And kavod<\/em>? That\u2019s not just a pat on the back. It\u2019s weight. Gravitas. It\u2019s the same word used for God\u2019s glory. So when you give kavod<\/em> to a fool, you are redistributing sacred weight to someone who cannot carry it\u2014and should never be trusted to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In a culture obsessed with clout over character, this is a warning: Don\u2019t honour people just because they\u2019re loud. Or trending. Or rich. That\u2019s like hosting a snowstorm in July. You\u2019ll get attention\u2014but at the cost of everything that should be growing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cLike snow in summer, or rain during harvest, so is honour given to a fool.\u201d(Proverbs 26:1, my remix) This is not just about bad timing. This is about moral chaos. It’s nature being violated. Agricultural sabotage. Snow in an Israeli summer would be a joke if it weren’t so deadly.
