Proverbi 9:15 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 9:15

To call passengers who go right on their ways.
] Who have been religiously educated, and trained up in the principles of true Christianity; and who walk outwardly according to the rule of the divine word, and are in a fair way for heaven and eternal happiness. These she has her eye upon as they pass along, and calls unto them, and endeavours to turn them aside out of the way they are going, to make them proselytes to her antichristian religion; which, when she succeeds in, she glories and boasts of; just as harlots are very desirous of seducing and debauching chaste, innocent, and virtuous persons; see ( Revelation 2:20 ) . Saying as follows:

Proverbi 9:15 In-Context

13 La donna stolta, strepitosa, Scempia, e che non ha alcuno intendimento,
14 Siede anch’essa all’entrata della sua casa, In seggio, ne’ luoghi elevati della città.
15 Per gridare a coloro che passano per la via, Che vanno a dirittura a lor cammino:
16 Chi è scempio? riducasi qua. E se vi è alcuno scemo di senno, gli dice:
17 Le acque rubate son dolci, E il pane preso di nascosto è dilettevole.
