Overly Righteous?

“…do not be overly righteous, nor be overly wise: Why should you destroy yourself…” Eccl 7:16, © NKJV, italics and emphasis mine

A young lad sought advice as to what he should do as he just got saved and he’s been assisting his parents on their local bar (brewing and serving local/traditional beer)…what would you have told him? would your advice change if the family business was a brothel or drug dealing?

Before you answer think about this, what did King Solomon mean when he said being overly righteous/wise will destroy you. Was King Solomon tripping after loosing the battle to Assyrian army or there is truly such thing as being overly righteous or wise? I LEAVE THIS WEEK’S POSTING OPEN
