Compassionate and Jealous—Proverbs 6:20-35
Another theme has started to emerge in Proverbs. You may have noticed. Sexual temptation looms large. The wise father who teaches his son in these chapters is not blind to the main dangers that young men face.
Marriage, Adultery, and Jesus Christ—Proverbs 5
What are the best things in life? Here are a few on my list. Leaves falling in a crisp autumn wind. A cup of hot black coffee. The crash of a thunderstorm and the pounding of rain. The first flakes of snow at the beginning of winter. The stars twinkling on a clear dark night. Fresh strawberries and whipped cream.
None of these compares with marriage. It’s the best. I think I can make the case for this from the Bible.
