Proverbs 2:19

"for her house leads down to death, her paths to the departed spirits."

Key Reflection

This verse portrays a life that ultimately leads to death and the realm of the dead, emphasizing the destructive nature of immoral choices. It warns that following such a path results in spiritual and physical ruin.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

The words describe more than the fatal persistency of the sinful habit when once formed. A resurrection from that world of the dead to “the paths of life” is all but impossible.
