“For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.”
Proverbs 6:34 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 6:34
Jealousy is a husband's fury; he will show no mercy in the day of vengeance. The Hebrew 'qinah' (jealousy/zeal) describes righteous protective passion. The betrayed husband's rage is justified. 'Chamal' (spare/show mercy) indicates that mercy will not moderate justice. Adultery violates covenant and wounds love profoundly. The personal nature of sexual sin produces uniquely intense response. This warns: don't expect mercy from those you've deeply betrayed.
