Proverbs 22:14 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

The mouth of strange women Their fair and flattering speeches, wherewith they entice men into sin, as is observed Proverbs 7:21, into which it is easy to fall, but out of which it is hard, if not impossible, to be rescued. For it is a rare thing for any person, who has once entered into a course of lewdness: to recover himself from it, Proverbs 2:19. He that is abhorred of the Lord Namely, in a high and singular manner; who by his former impieties, and contempt of God and his grace, hath provoked God to leave him to his own heart's lusts, and to punish one sin with another; shall fall therein And, without a miracle of grace, shall perish everlastingly.

Proverbs 22:14

14 The mouth of strange women is a deep pit: he that is abhorred of the LORD shall fall therein.
