Proverbs 5:7

Pro 5:7 Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth.

Ver. 7. O ye children. ] See Proverbs 4:1 . Shechem, though at ripeness of age, yet is called a child. Gen 39:19 Neque distulit puer. And the young man, or the child, deferred not to do the thing. A child he is called, that is, a fool, quia non ratione sed affectu rapitur, saith an interpreter, a because not reason but lust overruled him. "As for thee, thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel," said she to her libidinous b brother Amnon. 1Sa 23:13

a Pareus.

b Of persons, their lives, actions, desires: Given to, full of, or characterized by lust or lewdness; lustful, lecherous, lewd.
