Chapter five<\/strong> returns to the subject of the sexually loose woman from Proverbs 2:16-19, emphasizing that she is an adulteress. Solomon\u2019s own mother, Bathsheba, committed adultery with King David (2 Samuel 11-12), of which union Solomon was the second-born. \u0644\u0639\u0628\u0629 \u0628\u0644\u0627\u0643 \u062c\u0627\u0643<\/a> Solomon also had many wives during his life (1 Kings 11:3), and it does not take supernatural wisdom to see the issues associated with adultery. In this chapter, Solomon laid out the dangers of his son getting mixed up with a married woman, then offered a much better situation.<\/p>\n

In Solomon\u2019s example, the woman was the seductress, speaking words dripping with honey and oil (Proverbs 5:3). Anyone who was caught up with her, however, would find himself on the path of bitterness and death (Proverbs 5:4-5). As if that were not bad enough, Solomon warned that the man who has an affair with a married woman is wasting his strength, his years, and his wealth by investing them into another man\u2019s home (Proverbs 5:8-11). Although it does not clearly state it, the wasting away of one\u2019s body or strength could certainly apply to sexually transmitted diseases. \u0643\u064a\u0641 \u062a\u0644\u0639\u0628 \u0628\u064a\u0646\u062c\u0648<\/a> <\/p>\n

Instead of this potential life, Solomon encouraged his son to be satisfied at home: \u201cDrink water from your own cistern and running water from your own well\u201d<\/em> (Proverbs 5:15). A married couple should fully satisfy each other, so there is no need to look elsewhere (Proverbs 5:16-20). In this case, as with many other examples that will arise in this book, the lack of discipline and structure leads to destruction, while obedience to God\u2019s law brings life and a straight path (Proverbs 5:21-23). 888<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
