This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Pro_31:18 She perceiveth that her merchandise [is] good: her candle goeth not out by night.

Ver. 18. She perceiveth that her merchandise is good.] She feels the sweet of it, and is heartened to redouble her diligence, as a draught horse feeling his load coming, draws the harder. The good soul doth the same. For, having once tasted how sweet the Lord is, it can never have enough of him, but is carried after him with strength of desire, as the doves to their dove cotes, as the eagles to the carcases. {Psa_84:1-3} No reason would satisfy Moses, but when God had done much for him he must still have more. {Exo_33:12-19; Exo_34:9}
