The Righteous One (man) is one Hebrew word, “Siddiq” referring to one just and righteous person, or rather a specific sinless person. When God dispensed the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, Peter referred to Jesus as the Righteous One. (Acts 3:14) Stephen, before he was stoned referred to Jesus as the Righteous One. (Acts 7:52) Apostle Paul when recounting how Ananias laid his hands on him at his conversion also referred to Jesus as the Righteous One. (Acts 22:14) Jesus is the only Righteous One this proverb prophecy regards.
Jesus, the Righteous One understands and wisely considers the house of the wicked. He knows their heart, mind, will, and intent. He knows why each member of the house does what they do whether by intent or nature. He considers how to approach and deal with each one and the family in the house of the wicked as a whole.
Jesus uses knowledge of the souls in the house of the wicked to both his and their advantage. He brings the wicked to ruin in a most cunning way. While teaching bout being watchful and ready for his coming he revealed his secret way of victory. He said, “But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into.’ (Luke 12:39) Speaking to Moses from the burning bush he said, “I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey…” (Exodus 3:8) Thus, the house of the wicked is ruined by the Righteous One removing through grace and righteousness.
