Charles Ellicott Commentary Proverbs 8:32

"Now therefore, [my] sons, hearken unto me; For blessed are they that keep my ways." — Proverbs 8:32 (ASV)

Now therefore listen—that is, now that you know how great my power is, and what love I have for you, in that I rejoice in you, and call you my sons (Compare to 1 John 3:1).
