Proverbs 7:7 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 7:7
Among the simple ones, the youth void of understanding - observation of the naive young man about to fall into adultery's trap. The 'simple' (peti) and 'void of understanding' (chasar-lev - lacking heart/sense) characterize one vulnerable to seduction. Youth and inexperience create vulnerability requiring wisdom's protective instruction. The verse begins an extended illustration (vv.6-23) demonstrating adultery's deadly seduction.
