He suggests that what is at issue is private versus common property. The images of the cistern, well, or fountain are used of a wife (e.g., Song 4:15 ) because she, like water, satisfies desires. Streams of water in the street would then mean sexual contact with a lewd woman. According to 7:12 she never stays home but is in the streets and is the property of many (P. Kruger, “Promiscuity and Marriage Fidelity? A Note on Prov 5:15-18 ,” JNSL 13 [1987]: 61-68).","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Proverbs%205%3A15/1"}
