Charles Ellicott Commentary Proverbs 9:13

"The foolish woman is clamorous; [She is] simple, and knoweth nothing." — Proverbs 9:13 (ASV)

A foolish woman.—Rather, the Foolish woman; Folly personified, in opposition to Wisdom described above.

Clamorous.—Not of dignified demeanor, as her rival.

Simple.—Hebrew, simplicity, i.e., she is simplicity itself.

And knows nothing.—And so she leaves room for all evil to enter and dwell with her (Matthew 12:45); thus she perishes, like Israel, for lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6).
