1. Wisdom's invitation (1-12)

Wisdom builds her house and prepares choice meat and mixed wine abundantly. She sends out her servants and invites all, "Come, eat and drink!" (Mt 22:1-14). It is free, however, it requires humble repentance. They must leave their wicked ways. Those who mock rebukes and corrections will refuse this invitation. Then, they alone will suffer. But those who fear God and love the knowledge of the Holy one will come to walk in the way of insight. They will be wiser and many years will be added to their life. Jesus invites all, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest!" He will give us eternal life when we come to him humbly.

2. Folly's invitation (13-18)

Folly sounds similar to wisdom (Gen 3:1). She also loudly invites those who pass by, "Come to my house!" She is lying. She prepares no food and no wine. Her motto is, "Stolen water is sweet; food eaten in secret is delicious!" She promises the secret sinful life will be enjoyable, but to follow her leads to death. (Gen 3:19)
