Diverse weights
Verses 10 and 23 of in Chapter 20 of Proverbs are clubbed.
Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them are alike abomination to the Lord (Proverbs 20:10).
Divers weights are an abomination unto the Lord; and a false balance is not good (Proverbs 20:23).
In this world, the organs of a state i.e the executive, the legislative and the judiciary adopt different yardsticks and divers measures for judgment and for execution of law. A court which has delivered a verdict using a particular yardstick or measurement delivers a different verdict on same or similar facts. A government which implements a scheme using a particular yardstick or measurement fails to implement a similar or same scheme with respect to another group of people. Businessmen also use divers weights or measures to sell their products which are not worth the money paid by customers.
In the Christian world, pastors and evangelists use divers weights and divers measures while dealing with the people who seek their ministries. They have special prayer ministries for businessmen or rich people who help their ministries financially.
