What does Proverbs 30:15-16 Mean?

Contextual Meaning

Here the warning is against greediness.

""Give! Give!" ^[1] can be taken as the names-with more pointed wit than as the cries-of these identical twins, who are made of the same stuff as their mother-other people"s blood." ^[2]

Greediness is not just silly ( Proverbs 30:15), it is dangerous ("Sheol" and "fire," Proverbs 30:16) and pathetic (being childless and parched, Proverbs 30:16). Sheol ever yearns to end life, and the barren womb ever yearns to produce it. ^[3]
