Commentary on Proverbs 7:16
I've decked my bed with coverings, colored linens from Egypt. The Hebrew 'ramad' (spread/deck) and 'chatul' (striped/colored) describe luxurious preparation. Egyptian linens were premium import goods. This verse emphasizes sensory seduction - visual beauty, textile luxury, exotic imports. Seduction appeals to senses and aesthetics. What looks beautiful can be morally deadly.
