SEV Biblia, Chapter 21:19
¶ Mejor es morar en tierra del desierto, que con la mujer rencillosa e iracunda.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 19. [It is] better to dwell in the wilderness , etc.] Where persons live without shelter, and are not only exposed to storms and tempests, but to beasts of prey; where is want of the necessaries of life, and no society; where no “speech” is, as the word for wilderness may signify; yet it is better to dwell in such a place, where no human voice is heard, than with a contentious and an angry woman ; that is always brawling and scolding, ever in a quarrelsome and angry disposition, and provoking to anger all about her; (see Gill on “ Proverbs 21:9”). In a mystical sense, it is better to be with the church in the wilderness, ( Revelation 12:14); than with the furious, bloodthirsty, and persecuting church of Rome, in all its worldly glory and splendour.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 19 - Unbridled passions spoil the comfort of all relations.
