If there is a theme to Proverbs 15, it is that we do well to think before we speak (or post) and be open to correction.
We also discuss a verse that, taken in context with other verses in the Old Testament, suggests a link between Abaddon and Tartarus:
Sheol and Abaddon lie open before the LORD;
Proverbs 15:11 (ESV)
how much more the hearts of the children of man!
In short, we think Abaddon is to Sheol as Tartarus is to Hades.
