Gill's Notes on the Bible

And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman,.... Or "err with her" y; after all those inconveniences and miseries that follow upon a conversation with a harlot, and all those advantages of a marriage state set before thee; why wilt thou be, so foolish and mad as to have a fondness for an harlot and dote upon her, and neglect entering into a marriage state, or forsake the wife of youth? and yet though things are so clearly stated and aptly represented, and the expostulation made in the most tender and affectionate manner; it is suggested as if after all it would not be attended unto, but a harlot be preferred to a wife of youth, a filthy beast to a loving hind, and dirty puddles of water in a ditch to running streams from a well or fountain;

and embrace the bosom of a stranger? that is not thy wife; a description of unlawful love and impure embraces, which are dissuaded from.

y "Errares", Junius Tremellius, Piscator "aberrares", Cocceius.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Emphasis is laid (see the Proverbs 2:16 note) upon the origin of the beguiler.
