This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Pro 6:1-35. After admonitions against suretyship and sloth (compare Pro 6:6-8), the character and fate of the wicked generally are set forth, and the writer (Pro 6:20-35) resumes the warnings against incontinence, pointing out its certain and terrible results. This train of thought seems to intimate the kindred of these vices.
if - The condition extends through both verses.
be surety - art pledged.
stricken ... hand - bargained (compare Job 17:3).
with a stranger - that is, for a friend (compare Pro 11:15; Pro 17:18).
