Proverbs 6:31 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

But [if] he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house.

Ver. 31. He shall restore sevenfold,] i.e., Manifold, according as the law limiteth, though it be to the utmost of what the thief is worth. But what restitution can the adulterer make, should he make him amends with as much more? The thief steals out of want; the adulterer of wantonness.
