King Solomon Gives Judgment from His Throneby emmanuel_higgins

Proverbs 16:15

In the light of the king’s countenance is life; and his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain.

A favorable countenance gives encouragement and refreshment to those who receive it. A speaker is strengthened when those listening show earnest attention and approval in their faces. That strengthening works like gentle moisture falling on thirsty grass to revive it. The light of approval in the face thus imparts life in the same way the latter rain brings refreshing.
