“For she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city,”
Proverbs 9:14 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 9:14
She sits at her house door, on a seat in the city's high places. Like Wisdom (9:3), Folly positions herself prominently. The Hebrew 'yashav' (sit/dwell) and 'kisse' (seat/throne) describe established positioning. Folly doesn't hide but publicly calls, mimicking wisdom's public invitation. Distinguishing wisdom from folly requires discernment, not merely observing visibility or confidence. Both call loudly; content differs.
