This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
This exquisite picture of a truly lovely wife is conceived and drawn in accordance with the customs of Eastern nations, but its moral teachings suit all climes. In Hebrew the verses begin with the letters of the Hebrew alphabet in order (see on Introduction to Poetical Books).
Who ... woman - The question implies that such are rare, though not entirely wanting (compare Pro 18:22; Pro 19:14).
virtuous - literally, “of strength,” that is, moral courage (compare Pro 12:4; Rth 3:11).
her price, etc. - (compare Pro 3:15).
