Commentary on Proverbs 6:13

Theological / Devotional

With his eyes. The sly wink of the evildoer seems to reveal depths of infamy. Wicked men have a secret language of their own, and use hands and feet as well as lips and eyes to express themselves to their companions when in the presence of honest men. The whole body of the rogue is often an outward revelation of the inward wickedness. The slouch of the shoulder, the hang of the head, the shuffle of the feet, go with long-indulged depravity.
