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

For the lips of a strange woman drop [as] an honeycomb,.... "Mulsa dicta", "honey words", as is Plautus's e expression. The Septuagint and Arabic versions premise something here which is not in the Hebrew text,

"do not give heed to a wicked woman;''

and the Vulgate Latin version,

"to the fallacy of a woman:''

but there is no need to connect the words by such a supplement; since, as they lie, they give a reason why it was necessary to attend to wisdom and understanding, in order to act discreetly and speak knowingly; since there is so much danger of being drawn aside by a wicked woman, a lewd and adulterous one; the kisses of whose lips, her confabulations and songs, are as pleasing to the carnal senses of men as honey is sweet to the taste; she promises them a great deal of pleasure in her embraces, and in the enjoyment of her: so the poet f describes an agreeable voice to be sweeter than the honeycomb;

and her mouth [is] smoother than oil; her fair speeches, enticing words, and flattering fawning language, and amorous expressions, easily find their way and slide into the hearts of men, to prevail upon them to listen to her, and yield to her temptations. Gersom interprets this strange woman of the imaginative faculty; and Jarchi of heresy: it is applicable enough to the whore of Rome; who, by the blandishments of pomp and grandeur, and the allurements of wealth and riches, draws many into her idolatrous practices; which are spiritual adultery, signified by her golden cup, Revelation 17:4.

e Rudens, Act. 2. Sc. 3. v. 84. Poenulus, 1, 2. v. 112. f φωνα γλυκερωτερα η μελικηρω, Theocrit. Idyll. 21.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Smoother than oil - The same comparison is used in marginal reference to describe the treachery of a false friend.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Proverbs 5:3. The lips of a strange woman — One that is not thy own, whether Jewess or heathen.

Drop as a honey-comb — She uses the most deceitful, flattering, and alluring speeches: as the droppings of the honey out of the comb are the sweetest of all.
