Proverbs 5:15 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

The teacher seeks to counteract the evils of mere sensual passion chiefly by setting forth the true blessedness of which it is the counterfeit. The true wife is as a fountain of refreshment, where the weary soul may quench its thirst. Even the joy which is of the senses appears, as in the Song of Solomon, purified and stainless (see Proverbs 5:19 marginal reference).

Proverbs 5:15

15 Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.
