Proverbs 9:14

“For she sitteth at the door of her house, &e.] Idle and inactive, looking out for her prey; not active and laborious, as Wisdom, building her house, killing her beasts, furnishing her table, and sending out her maidens to call in her guests; but exposing herself in the most public manner, and being at the utmost ease, sitting as a queen; (see <661807>Revelation 18:7); and as it follows, on a seat, or “throne”f256; the same seat, or throne, power, and authority, which the dragon gave to the beast, or antichrist, placed at Rome, where this woman reigns; (see <661302>Revelation 13:2 17:8); in the high places of the city; the city of Rome, and its jurisdiction, the high places of which are their…”

“on a seat--literally, "throne," takes a prominent place, impudently and haughtily.”

“Contrast with Proverbs 9:1, etc. The foolish woman has her house, but it is no stately palace with seven pillars, like the home of Wisdom. No train of maidens wait on her, and invite her guests, but she herself sits at the door, her position as prominent as that of Wisdom, counterfeiting her voice, making the same offer to the same class (compare Proverbs 9:16 with Proverbs 9:4). return to 'Top of Page'”

“At the door - Watching for occasions of sin. Proverbs 9:15”

“9:14 On the heights overlooking the city was the traditional location for a temple. Folly personifies false gods and goddesses that compete for the affection and loyalty of God’s people (contrast 9:2-3).”
