"The sluggard buries his hand in the dish, But will not even bring it back
to his mouth" (Proverbs 19:24 NASB). There are no limits to the depths of
laziness. Some people are so lazy they are not even willing to exert even a
minimal effort to take care of themselves. In this Proverb, the man isn't
even willing to do the work to take the food from the bowl to his mouth.
This is just as well, Paul says "if anyone is not willing to work, then he
is not to eat, either" (2 Thessalonians 3:10). Laziness is degrading,
unwise, and ungodly. God wants us to put our time to good use.
