📖 HER HOUSE IS THE WAY TO HELL (Proverbs 7)
Proverbs 7 gives a very real warning concerning adultery, temptation, and the strange woman:
“Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.”
— Proverbs 7:27 KJV
AN INTERESTING DETAIL — THE APPOINTED TIME
In Proverbs 7:20, she says:
“He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed.”
The Hebrew word translated “day appointed” is keseh — the same rare word found in Psalm 81:3:
“Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day.”
Could Proverbs 7:20 be pointing to an appointed feast time?
A WARNING BEYOND THE STRANGE WOMAN
While Proverbs 7 gives a literal warning concerning adultery, Scripture also uses adultery to describe unfaithfulness to God.
Israel is described as a wife who treacherously departed from her husband (Jeremiah 3:20).
James warns:
“Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God?”
— James 4:4 KJV
And in Revelation, “Jezebel” seduces the servants of Christ to commit fornication and idolatry (Revelation 2:20), while those who follow her are described as those who “commit adultery with her” (Revelation 2:22).
So the warning is greater than one woman.
It is also a warning against being seduced away from faithfulness to God.🔥

📖 PROVERBS 7 — KJV
[full chapter/lyrics]
My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.
Pro 7:2 Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.
Pro 7:3 Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.
Pro 7:4 Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:
Pro 7:5 That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.
Pro 7:6 For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,
Pro 7:7 And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
Pro 7:8 Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,
Pro 7:9 In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:
Pro 7:10 And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.
Pro 7:11 (She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:
Pro 7:12 Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)
Pro 7:13 So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him,
Pro 7:14 I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows.
Pro 7:15 Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.
Pro 7:16 I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works, with fine linen of Egypt.
Pro 7:17 I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
Pro 7:18 Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves.
Pro 7:19 For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey:
Pro 7:20 He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed.
Pro 7:21 With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.
Pro 7:22 He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;
Pro 7:23 Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.
Pro 7:24 Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth.
Pro 7:25 Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.
Pro 7:26 For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her.
Pro 7:27 Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.
