Gill's Notes on the Bible

Be not thou [one] of them that strike hands,.... Or "among them" m, of the number of them, that do as they do, give their hand or their bond for others; he surety for them, as it is explained in the following clause; see Proverbs 6:1;

[or] of them that are sureties for debts; contracted by others; that engage for the payment of them, in case the principal fails: and it is much if persons that keep indifferent company, angry and furious men, who are often in broils and quarrels, and spend their time and substance in strife and contention, are not drawn into engagements of this kind.

m ב "inter", Pagninus, Tigurine version, Mercerus, Gejerus, Michaelis.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
