PROVERBS 23:30 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek mixed wine.”
Those who linger over wine, who go to sample bowls of mixed wine—a description of those caught in the culture of drinking, establishing that lingering in wine-culture deepens the trap. The phrase 'linger over wine' (arukim al-hayayin) describes habitual indulgence. The theological significance involves the principle that habits deepen into captivity.
