Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Proverbs 7:1-5

These verses are an introduction to his warning against fleshly lusts, much the same with that, Prov. 6:20; and ending (Pr. 7:5) as that did (Pr. 7:24), To keep thee from the strange woman; that is it he aims at; only there he had said, Keep thy father's commandment, here (which comes all to one), Keep my commandments, for he speaks to us as unto sons. He speaks in God's name; for it is God's commandments that we are to keep, his words, his law. The word of God must be to us, 1. As that which... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Proverbs 7:1

My son, keep my words ,.... Doctrines and instructions; which, as a father to a son, or a master to his scholars, he had delivered; these he would have him observe and attend to; and lay up my commandments with thee : as a treasure in his heart, to be brought out upon occasion; to be kept as valuable, and made use of as an antidote against and a preservative from sinning; see Psalm 119:11 . The Septuagint and Arabic versions add, what is not in the Hebrew text, "son, honour the Lord,... read more

My son, keep my words. The teacher enjoins his pupil, as in Proverbs 2:1 , to observe the rules which he gives. Lay up, as a precious treasure (see on Proverbs 2:1 and Proverbs 2:7 ). The LXX . adds here a distich which is not in the Hebrew or in any other version, and is not germane to the context, however excellent in itself: "My son, honour the Lord, and thou shalt be strong, and beside him feat no other." With this we may compare Luke 12:5 and Isaiah 8:12 , Isaiah 8:13 . read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Proverbs 7:1-3

Keeping the commandments We are all familiar with the expression, "keeping the commandments." But do we all fully comprehend what this involves? Let us consider some of the requisites. I. REMEMBER THE COMMANDMENTS . "Lay up my commandments with thee." The Law was treasured in the ark. It is important that great principles should be so impressed upon our minds as to perpetually haunt our memories, and recur to our vision in critical moments. The school task of committing the ten... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Proverbs 7:1-27

A tragedy of temptation This is a fine piece of dramatic moral description, and there is no reason why it should not be made use of, handled with tact and delicacy, with an audience of young men. I. THE PROLOGUE . ( Proverbs 7:1-5 .) On Proverbs 7:1 , see Proverbs 1:8 ; Proverbs 2:1 ; Proverbs 6:20 . On Proverbs 6:2 , see on Proverbs 4:4 . Here an expression not before used occurs.

The Pulpit Commentary - Proverbs 7:1-27

The two ways Here we have— I. THE WAY OF SIN AND DEATH . This is: 1 . The way of thoughtlessness. It is the "simple ones," the "young men void of understanding" ( Proverbs 7:7 ), those who go heedlessly "near the corner," "the way to the house" of the tempter or the temptress ( Proverbs 7:8 ). It is those who "do not consider," who do not think who they are, what they are here for, whither they go, what the end will be;—it is these who go astray and are found in... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Proverbs 7:1-27

More about sexual misbehaviour (6:20-7:27)Sometimes teaching can be so well known that people no longer take any notice of it. Therefore, they must remind themselves to be obedient to familiar truths (20-22). One matter concerning which the writer repeats his earlier warnings is sexual immorality. Offenders are merely destroying themselves (23-29). People may not despise a desperately hungry person who steals food; nevertheless, the person must be dealt with and made to repay (with interest)... read more
