Mishle 6:33 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 6:33

A wound and dishonour shall he get
A wound, stroke, or blow, either from the husband of the strumpet, as was often the case


FOOTNOTES:

F24 in later times; or from the civil magistrate, being ordered by him to be beaten F25 or stoned; or from God himself inflicting diseases on him; see ( Genesis 12:17 ) ; where the same word is used as here: and "dishonour" from men; for though they do not despise a thief in circumstances before related, yet they will despise an adulterer, and speak reproachfully of him, whenever they have occasion to make mention of him; and his reproach shall not be wiped away;
as long as he lives, though his life may be spared; yea, it shall even continue after death; and though he may repent of his sin and reform, as in the case of David.

Mishle 6:33 In-Context

31 But if he be found out, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give hon (substance, wealth) of his bais;
32 But the no’ef (one who committeth adultery) with an isha lacketh lev [of understanding]; he that doeth it destroyeth his own nefesh.
33 A nega [see Isaiah 53:8 for Moshiach’s nega taken for unfaithful Israel] and dishonor shall he get; and his cherpah (reproach) shall not be wiped away.
34 For kina (jealousy) is the chamat gever (husband’s rage); therefore he will not spare in the yom nakam (day of vengeance).
35 He will not regard kofer (compensation); neither will he be the appeased, though shochad (bribe) be great.
