SEV Biblia, Chapter 23:28
También ella, como robador, acecha, y multiplica entre los hombres los prevaricadores.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 23:28
Verse 28. Increaseth the transgressors among men. ] More iniquity springs from this one source of evil, than from any other cause in the whole system of sin. Women and strong drink cause many millions to transgress.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 28. She also lieth in wait as [for] a prey , etc.] At the door of her house, in the corner of the streets, in the dark of the night; laying her snares, and spreading her nets, for unwary persons, to make a prey of their virtue and of their money. Or, “as [a man of] prey” f636 ; a thief and robber, so Gersom; thus she watches and takes all opportunities to seize on persons, and rob them of their substance, health, and credit; or rather “as [a beast of] prey”; ravenous, devouring, and insatiable; so the Targum, “as a beast ravening, she lies in wait with her eyes;” and increaseth the transgressors among men ; there is none that occasions wore sin, or makes more sinners, than a whorish woman; swearing, lying, drunkenness, thieving, stealing, housebreaking, robbing on the highway, etc. are the sins she leads into. Or, “increaseth treacherous” persons; to God, to their king, to their wives, to their master’s; and all that they may consume, what they can get by perfidious practices, upon them, or, “perfidious persons among men, she adds “to herself” f638 ;” she gets a parcel of abandoned wretches about her, whom she employs as her panders for her lust, or as bullies to spoil her gallants of their substance, or murder them for the sake of it.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 19-28 - The gracious Saviour who purchased pardon and peace for his people with all the affection of a tender parent, counsels us to hear and be wise, and is ready to guide our hearts in his way. Here we have a earnest call to young people, to attend to the advice of their godl parents. If the heart be guided, the steps will be guided. Buy the truth, and sell it not; be willing to part with any thing for it. D not part with it for pleasures, honours, riches, or any thing in thi world. The heart is what the great God requires. We must not think to divide the heart between God and the world; he will have all or none Look to the rule of God's word, the conduct of his providence, and the good examples of his people. Particular cautions are given against sin most destructive to wisdom and grace in the soul. It is really a sham to make a god of the belly. Drunkenness stupifies men, and then all goes to ruin. Licentiousness takes away the heart that should be give to God. Take heed of any approaches toward this sin, it is very hard to retreat from it. It bewitches men to their ruin.
