Contextual Overview

20 My sonne, kepe thy fathers commaundement, and forsake not the lawe of thy mother: 21 Tye them continually in thyne heart, and bynde them about thy necke. 22 That shall leade thee when thou goest, preserue thee when thou art asleepe, and when thou awakest talke with thee. 23 For the commaundement is a lanterne, and the lawe a light: yea chastening and nurture is the way of life: 24 That they may kepe thee from the euyll woman, and from the flattering tongue of the straunge woman. 25 Lust not after her beautie in thyne heart, lest thou be taken with her fayre lokes. 26 By an harlot [a man is brought] to beg his bread, and a woman wyll hunte for the pretious life of man. 27 May a man take fire in his bosome, and his clothes not be brent? 28 Or can one go vpon hotte coales, and his feete not be brent? 29 Euen so, whosoeuer goeth in to his neyghbours wife and toucheth her, can not be vngiltie.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

When thou goest, it shall lead thee,.... The law of God taught by parents; this directs man in the path of duty and business of life; teaches him what way to shun, and which to walk in; it leads out of the paths of sin, and into the way in which he should go, which is most conducive to his good, and to the glory of God; it will lead him safely, so that he shall not stumble, Proverbs 3:3;

when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; from terrifying dreams, evil spirits, dangers by fire or thieves; one that observes it conscientiously may lie down and sleep, secure of the guardianship of divine Providence, and not fear any evil; or "shall watch over thee" h in the night season;

and [when] thou awakest, it shall talk with thee; familiarly; and instruct what to do, and how to behave the day following; or "it shall go out with thee" i, into the fields for a morning's walk, and assist in meditation. Jarchi interprets this of sleeping by death, and of awaking at the resurrection of the dead.

h תשמר עליך "excubabit apud te", Cocceius; "excubias aget super te", Michaelis, Schultens. i היא תשוחך "illa ipsa spatiabitur tecum", Schultens.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The thought of Proverbs 3:3 is carried step further. No outward charm, but the law of obedience, shall give safety to the traveler, when he sleeps or when he wakes.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Proverbs 6:22. When thou goest, it shall lead thee — Here the law is personified; and is represented as a nurse, teacher, and guardian, by night and day. An upright man never goes but as directed by God's word and led by God's Spirit.

When thou sleepest — He commends his body and soul to the protection of his Maker when he lies down and sleeps in peace. And when he awakes in the morning, the promises and mercies of God are the first things that present themselves to his recollection.
