SCRIPTURE

"Where there is no counsel, purposes are disappointed; But in the multitude of counsellors they are established." — Proverbs 15:22 (ASV)

Counsellors - The Hebrew word, used almost as an official title (1 Chronicles 27:32; Isaiah 1:26; Isaiah 19:11), brings before us the picture of the council-chamber of Eastern countries, arranged for a solemn conference of the wise.
