John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 15. A continual dropping in a very rainy day , etc.] That is, through the roof of a house which is not well covered, or which lets in rain by one means or another; so that in a thorough rainy day it keeps continually dropping, to the great annoyance of those within, and which is very uncomfortable to them: it is observed that rain is called by the name in the text, because a man is shut up under a roof falls; and continuing long he is shut up within doors and cannot come out; and a contentious woman are alike ; troublesome and uncomfortable; as in a rainy day, a man cannot go abroad with any pleasure, and if the rain is continually dropping upon him in his house he cannot sit there with any comfort; and so a contentious woman, that is always scolding and brawling, a man has no comfort at home; and if he goes abroad he is jeered and laughed at on her account by others; and perhaps she the more severely falls upon him when he returns for having been abroad; (see Proverbs 19:13).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 15, 16 - The contentions of a neighbour may be like a sharp shower, troublesom for a time; the contentions of a wife are like constant rain.
