Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
Give her of the fruit of her hands - This may be a prayer. May she long enjoy the fruit of her labors! May she see her children' s children, and peace upon Israel!
And let her own works praise her in the gates - Let what she has done be spoken of for a memorial of her; let her bright example be held forth in the most public places. Let it be set before the eyes of every female, particularly of every wife, and especially of every mother; and let them learn from this exemplar, what men have a right to expect in their wives, the mistresses of their families, and the mothers of their children. Amen.
