Contextual Overview

10 Who so fyndeth an honest faythfull woman, she is much more worth then pearles. 11 The heart of her husbande may safely trust in her, so that he shall fall into no pouertie. 12 She wyll do hym good, and not euill, all the dayes of her lyfe. 13 She occupieth wooll and flaxe, and laboureth gladly with her handes. 14 She is like a marchauntes ship, that bryngeth her vittayles from a farre. 15 She is vp in the nyght season, to prouide meate for her housholde, and foode for her maydens. 16 She considereth lande, and byeth it: and with the fruite of her handes she planteth a vineyarde. 17 She girdeth her loynes with strength, and fortifieth her armes. 18 And yf she perceaue that her huswiferie doth good, her candell goeth not out by nyght. 19 She layeth her fingers to the spindle, & her hande taketh holde of the distaffe.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her,.... Christ her Maker is her husband, who has asked her in marriage, and has betrothed her to himself in righteousness; and of whose chaste love, and inviolable attachment to him, he is fully satisfied, as well as of her fidelity in keeping what he commits unto her; he trusts her with his Gospel and ordinances, which she faithfully retains and observes; and with his children born in her, who are nursed up at her side, to whom she gives the breasts of ordinances, bears them on her sides, and dandles them on her knees, as a tender and careful mother does,

Isaiah 60:4;

so that he shall have no need of spoil; he shall never want any; by means of the word preached in her, prey and spoil shall be taken out of the hands of the mighty, and he shall divide the spoil with them; or have souls snatched out of the hands of Satan, and translated into his kingdom, Isaiah 53:12. The Septuagint version understands it of the virtuous woman, and not of her husband; "such an one as she shall not want good spoils"; now, prey or spoil sometimes signifies food, as in

Psalms 111:5; and so Jarchi interprets it here; and then the sense is, she shall not want spiritual provisions; she shall have plenty of them from her husband, who reposes such confidence in her; or shall not want excellent treasures, as the Arabic version, which also understands it of her; such are the word and ordinances, and particularly precious promises, which are more rejoicing than a great spoil, Psalms 119:162; and so Ambrose interprets y it of the church, who needs no spoils because she abounds with them, even with the spoils of the world, and of the devil.

y Enarrat. in loc. p. 1099. tom. 2.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

No need of spoil - Better, no lack of gain, lack of honest gain.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Proverbs 31:11. The heart of her husband

3. She is an unspotted wife. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her - he knows she will take care that a proper provision is made for his household, and will not waste any thing. He has no need for spoil - he is not obliged to go out on predatory excursions, to provide for his family, at the expense of the neighbouring tribes.
