Proverbs 7:9 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 7:9
Sin's timing is strategic—'in the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night.' Darkness provides cover for deeds that cannot withstand light. Jesus declared Himself the light of the world (John 8:12), and John writes that those who practice evil hate the light (John 3:19-20). This verse reveals sin's furtive nature and our responsibility to walk in the light. Reformed theology emphasizes that the unregenerate naturally love darkness, while the regenerate are called to walk as children of light (Ephesians 5:8).
