SEV Biblia, Chapter 7:10

Y he aquí, una mujer que le sale al encuentro con atavío de ramera, guardada de corazón,

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 7:10

Verse 10. A
woman with the attire of a harlot ] It appears that sitting in some open place, and covering the face, or having a veil of a peculiar kind on, was the evidence of a harlot, Gen. xxxviii. 14, 15-19. No doubt, in Solomon's time, they had other distinctions. In all other countries, and in all times. the show of their countenance did testify against them; they declared their sin as Sodom; they hid it not. However, this does not seem to have been a mere prostitute; for she was, according to her own declaration, a married woman, and kept house, ver. 19, if her assertions relative to this were not falsehoods, and calculated the better to render him secure, and prevent the suspicion of endangering himself by cohabiting with a common woman; which I am rather inclined to think was the case, for she was subtle of heart.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 10. And, behold, there met him a
woman , etc.] A married woman, and an adulteress, as the following account of her shows; as soon as ever she discerned the young man before described, who she knew, by his air, walk, and dress, was a fit person for her turn, she at once set out from her house, or the corner where she stood, and met him; she did not wait till he came up and made his suit to her, but she went out, and first attacked him; wherefore the word “behold” is prefixed as a note of admiration at the impudence of the woman, and as a note of attention to observe the consequence of this affair. This woman represents the woman on a scarletcoloured beast, the mother of harlots, who, though she pretends to be the spouse of Christ, is an arrant whore, ( Revelation 17:3,5); [with] the attire of a harlot ; not with her face veiled, as Tamar was, ( Genesis 38:14,15); for though that might be the sign of a harlot in the daytime, yet not in the night, as this was; rather with showy gaudy garments, such as the Athenian whores wore, or short ones, as the Romans; the word signifies one fitted to her body, neat and well shaped, to recommend her: so the woman, the whore of Rome, is said to be arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls; signifying the outward pomp and splendour of the Romish religion, designed to captivate weak and unwary minds, (see Gill on “ Revelation 17:4”); and subtle of heart ; mistress of all artful and intriguing methods to seduce and ensnare f175 ; or, “reserved of heart” f176 , cautious and wary what she said, told everything that was encouraging, but kept back what was discouraging; or she kept her own heart to herself, while she stole the hearts of others; so the Targum renders it, “which takes away the hearts of young men;” and to the same purpose are the versions of the Septuagint, Syriac, and Arabic: the subtlety of the popes, priests, jesuits, and other emissaries of Rome, to deceive the hearts of the simple, is well known; the coming of antichrist was after the working of Satan, with all deceivableness of unrighteousness, ( 2 Thessalonians 2:9,10).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 6-27 - Here is an affecting example of the
danger of youthful lusts. It is history or a parable of the most instructive kind. Will any one dare to venture on temptations that lead to impurity, after Solomon has se before his eyes in so lively and plain a manner, the danger of eve going near them? Then is he as the man who would dance on the edge of lofty rock, when he has just seen another fall headlong from the sam place. The misery of self-ruined sinners began in disregard to God' blessed commands. We ought daily to pray that we may be kept from running into temptation, else we invite the enemies of our souls to spread snares for us. Ever avoid the neighbourhood of vice. Beware of sins which are said to be pleasant sins. They are the more dangerous because they most easily gain the heart, and close it agains repentance. Do nothing till thou hast well considered the end of it Were a man to live as long as Methuselah, and to spend all his days in the highest delights sin can offer, one hour of the anguish an tribulation that must follow, would far outweigh them __________________________________________________________________
