Commentary on Proverbs 2:18

Theological / Devotional

Inclineth unto death. Evil thoughts, the reading of impure books, gazing upon salacious plays and pictures, as well as the deeds to which they often lead, turn the feet to paths of death. Tens of thousands of Israelites died as a consequence of sins that began when they were persuaded to become mere onlookers at the Moabite festivities (Num. 25; PP 454-456). Though today retribution is not so swift, it is as sure as it was then.
