Be not righteous over much; neither make thyself over wise: why shouldest thou destroy thyself?
 

7:16 righteous over much. This admonition is not a warning against true righteousness, wherein Christ Himself is our example (I Peter 2:21), but against self-righteousness or ostentatiousness in one’s goodness. Neither is it a warning against true wisdom, but against pride in intellectual achievement.
