Proverbs 6:1-35

Contents: Caution against rash suretiship, slothfulness, forwardness, and whoredom.

Characters: God, Solomon, his son.

Conclusion: Suretiship is to be avoided, because by it poverty and ruin are often brought into families. Poverty and want will certainly come upon those who are slothful. The froward man who devises mischief will surely fall into mischief. Adultery is to be looked upon with utmost dread and detestation as a sin that impoverishes men, debauches their consciences, threatens death and brings infamy upon the reputation.

Key Word: Warnings (Proverbs 5:1).

Strong Verses: Proverbs 6:6; Proverbs 6:23; Proverbs 6:32.
