Proverbs 2:15 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:

Whose ways are crooked, and (they) froward in their paths. Rather, as the noun is feminine and the adjective masculine, 'Who are crooked in their ways.' Though once they were in "the paths of uprightness" (Proverbs 2:13), they go aside into their "crooked" and "perverse" ways (Psalms 125:5). They are now frowardnesses (i:e., nothing but frowardness, as Bayne explains the Hebrew), so that none can walk with them, and yet walk aright.
