[b]We see that Proverbs 31 is portraying an ideal wife in the sense that an ideal wife (and the ideal woman) should strive to be as much like the woman in Proverbs 31 as her circumstances and culture allow. Nevertheless, there are problems with trying to make all of Prover ...[text shortened]... can learn from her as well.

What utter nonsense. Does your nonsense ever end? People who want to escape the true meaning of any bible statements can and will find a way to twist it.
You dont want to believe that you MUST follow the commandments of Christ so you gravitate to the teaching that Jesus was in another dispensation... and his commandments do not apply to you
You dont want to believe that you have to do good works so you stick to an obscure part of the bible that can be twisted to mean that because Jesus is righteous then that makes you righteous as well.
You dont want to believe that the Matt 25 judgment applies to you so you say that it applies to nonChristians who have asssited Chrsitians fleeing the Tribulation.
There are so many times you do that. This piece of nonsense is surely the brainchild of woman who sees that Solomon is praising hardworking industrious women, and that rides against her lazy personality so she changes the meaning.
What will God do with you people on judgment day?
