What does the Bible say about keeping silence?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that there is a time to keep silence and a time to speak, indicating the importance of understanding when to be still before God (Ecclesiastes 3:7).

In Ecclesiastes 3:7, it states that there is a time to keep silence and a time to speak. This teaches us the necessity of discernment in our actions and words. Keeping silence can signify not just the refusal to speak but also a state of inactivity and stillness before God. It is crucial for believers to recognize that there are moments requiring stillness to reflect on God’s goodness and mercy, emphasizing our dependency on Him for salvation rather than our own efforts.
