There's an interesting, albeit implicit, contrast between organs, and what they do, in Proverbs 15:1-4. This section focuses primarily on mouths and what they do; that is, how people affect and attempt to control others by the use of their tongues. In 15:3, though, the eyes of the Lord watch both the evil and the good. While the tongue is active and the eye passive, the Lord's eyes ultimately accomplish far more than do men's mouths, for his observations form the basis of his judgments.
