Proverbs 5:14 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

I was almost in all evil— I am plunged into almost all evils in the midst of the assembly of my people. Calmet.

There is scarcely any misery in respect of estate, or body, or soul, into which I am not already plunged." The words also are, and may be well rendered thus, In a moment I am come into almost all evil. "In how little a time, and for what short and momentary pleasures, am I now reduced to extreme and remediless evils!"
