Gill's Notes on the Bible
For the good man [is] not at home,.... Or, "for the man is not in his house" y. She does not say, "my man", or "my husband"; though the Septuagint. Syriac, and Arabic versions so render it; lest this should throw some difficulty in the young man's way, or remind herself of her conjugal obligation; but "the man", by way of contempt, as disowning him for her husband, or, however, having no regard for him in comparison of others: and this she says to encourage the young man to go with her; since her husband was gone, and show as alone, and mistress of the house;
he is gone a long journey; or, "a way afar off" z; into a distant country, and therefore need not fears return of him that night; she was prepared to answer all objections. The good man of the house may be understood of Christ, who is gone into a far country, to heaven, to take a kingdom to himself, and return, Luke 19:12; and in the mean while the church of Rome, who professes herself the true church and spouse of Christ, is committing fornication with the kings of the earth; and has set up another in his room and stead, whom she calls Christ's vicar on earth; and flatters herself and her lovers with impunity, from his distance from her, and his vicar having a right to do as he pleases.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The reference to the husband is probably a blind. The use of the word âgoodmanâ is due to the wish of the English translators to give a colloquial character to this part of their Version. The Hebrew is merely âthe man.â A touch of scorn may be noticed in the form of speech: not âmy husband,â but simply âthe man.â
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Proverbs 7:19. For the good man — Literally, "For the man is not in his house."
