What does the Bible say about the King mentioned in Proverbs 22:11?

Answered in 1 source

The King in Proverbs 22:11 refers to God, the King of Kings, who rules over all and is worthy of honor and glory.

Proverbs 22:11 speaks of a King whose friends are recognized by certain characteristics. This King is identified in 1 Timothy 6:15 as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, who reigns eternally and is omnipotent over creation and salvation. Unlike temporal rulers, who govern for a short time, this King’s dominion lasts forever, and He exercises absolute authority in both heaven and earth. His sovereignty calls for a response from all, as seen in how He interacted with Saul of Tarsus, challenging the notion of human autonomy and highlighting God's ultimate authority.
