Matthew Henry · Verse 9
Foolish and profane men consider sin a mere trifle, to be made light of rather than mourned over. Fools mock at the sin-offering; but those that make light of sin, make light of Christ.
Proverbs 14:9
Fools mock at making atonement for sins, but among the upright there is good will.
