Contextual Overview

1 My sonne geue heede vnto my wisdome, and bowe thyne eare vnto my prudence: 2 That thou mayest regarde good counsell, and that thy lippes may kepe knowledge. 3 For the lippes of a straunge woman are a dropping hony combe, and her throte is more glistering then oyle: 4 But at the laste she is as bitter as wormewood, and as sharpe as a two edged sworde. 5 Her feete go downe vnto death, and her steppes pearce thorowe vnto hell. 6 Perchaunce thou wylt ponder the path of her lyfe: so vnstedfast are her wayes that thou canst not know them. 7 Heare me nowe therefore O ye chyldren, and depart not from the wordes of my mouth. 8 Kepe thy way farre from her, & come not nigh the doores of her house. 9 That thou geue not thy honour vnto other, and thy yeres to the cruell: 10 That other men be not filled with thy vertues, and that thy labours come not in a straunge house.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

My son, attend unto my wisdom,.... Not the wisdom of the world or of the flesh, worldly wisdom and carnal policy; but spiritual and evangelical wisdom; such as one that is greater than Solomon has in him, even Christ; "for in him are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge", Colossians 2:3; and which he teaches and communicates to others, even all proper instructions for conduct in life: the Gospel, and each of the doctrines of it, which are "the wisdom of God in a mystery", 1 Corinthians 2:7: these every child of God, and disciple of Christ, ought carefully and diligently to attend unto;

[and] bow thine ear to my understanding: listen attentively to those things which I have, and give an understanding of, even things divine and spiritual; the understanding of which is of the utmost moment and importance.
