Target of Condemnation

Proverbs 6:32 (NASB95) The one who commits adultery with a woman is lacking sense; He who would destroy himself does it.

In our confused age there are people who like to talk about the patriarchy.  One of the distortions they pick out is how women caught in adultery were treated unfairly.  That may be so in some places but that is not the entire story.  This passage acts as a balance.

Notice that the condemnation is toward the man.  He is the one who is not forgiven.  He is the one who is targeted in the day of vengeance which is referred to in a later verse.

So?  Keep in mind that the world is full of people who either are ignorant or deliberately falsify the message of the Bible.  Do you own reading and thinking.
