Who are the righteous that run into the strong tower?

Answered in 1 source

The righteous who run into the strong tower are those justified by faith in Christ.

The righteous referenced in Proverbs 18:10 are not self-righteous individuals but those whom God has declared righteous through faith in Jesus Christ. This concept of justification is a cornerstone of the gospel, asserting that it is through Christ's obedience and sacrificial death that sinners are counted as righteous. The righteous are those who, feeling their sinfulness, flee to the Lord for refuge and are covered by His perfect righteousness. Thus, running into the strong tower signifies a reliance on Christ alone for salvation and safety from condemnation.
