Pro 6:34-35 | MHM | STEP | v. 34 : For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance . Adultery also exposes the sinner to the fury of the wronged husband. Jealousy is fierce and unrelenting—strong as death and cruel as the grave. When the adulterer is discovered, he would rather face a bear robbed of her cubs than the injured husband, who will pursue vengeance with all his might. In the day of reckoning, there will be no mercy.

‏ Proverbs 6:34-35

v. 34: For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance .

Adultery also exposes the sinner to the fury of the wronged husband. Jealousy is fierce and unrelenting—strong as death and cruel as the grave. When the adulterer is discovered, he would rather face a bear robbed of her cubs than the injured husband, who will pursue vengeance with all his might. In the day of reckoning, there will be no mercy.

v. 35: He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though you give many gifts (Proverbs 6:35 ^a).

No amount of compensation or bribery will pacify the jealous husband. Unlike theft, where restitution might satisfy the law, in the case of adultery, nothing but full justice will do. The only satisfaction is the execution of the law. Therefore, stand in awe and do not sin; do not expose yourself to suche end.
