Proverbs 7:12 (Mini Sermon)



 

12. Pro 7:12 - "Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)" A. Now is she without, i. Without adv. - I. Outside, in various senses: opp. to within adv. Now only literary and somewhat arch. ii. The strange woman doesn't abide in her house (Pro 7:11). iii. It's pretty hard to entice a man to commit adultery with her if she remains at home, so she heads out after her husband leaves (Pro 7:19). B. now in the streets, i. Whores have been walking the streets for thousands of years. ii. Wisdom cries in the streets to call men to repentance (Pro 1:20). iii. The strange woman roams the streets to call men to sin. C. and lieth in wait at every corner. i. Just like a criminal lies in wait to rob and kill his victim (Pro 1:11), and false teachers lie in wait to deceive (Eph 4:14), so the strange woman lies in wait (Pro 23:28) to deceive and kill her victim (Pro 7:21-23). ii. Whores have been standing on street corners trying to entice men to commit adultery for thousands of years.
