Day 208 (Thursday) - Proverbs 5:15-8:11


I find Solomon’s use of Wisdom being personified as a gracious woman and folly portrayed as a prostitute. I’m not sure if Solomon is meaning sexual purity here or if he is speaking more to morality, but the words in chapter six are true. One might be willing to forgive a man for stealing bread because he is hungry, but if one steals a man’s wife, he will receive the vengeance of her husband!
