“To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman. of the: or, of the strange tongue”
Proverbs 6:24 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 6:24
Wisdom keeps you from the evil woman, from the flattery of the foreign tongue. The Hebrew 'shamar' (keep/preserve) and 'chelqah' (flattery/smoothness) describe protective function and seductive danger. The 'strange woman' represents both literal sexual temptation and metaphorical enticement away from covenant faithfulness. Wisdom provides moral immunity against seduction's power. What seems irresistibly attractive loses appeal when wisdom reveals true cost.
