“He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks; straightway: Heb. suddenly”
Proverbs 7:22 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 7:22
He follows her suddenly, as an ox to slaughter, as a fool to stocks for correction. The Hebrew 'pitom' (suddenly/instantly) and 'tevach' (slaughter) describe swift movement toward doom. The ox imagery portrays ignorant domesticated animal approaching its death. The fool in stocks awaits punishment. Both illustrations depict foolish movement toward certain destruction. Seduction succeeds by blinding targets to obvious danger.
