Proverbs 26-27
Solomon advises that "a man who strays from home is like a bird that strays from its nest." It is easy to picture what a bird who has strayed from the nest would act like... running or flying around aimlessly, no where to go, getting into fights as it tries to sleep in another nest. How much more so the man who strays from home? Not only does his home life suffer, but often the other aspects of his life start teetering too... the restlessness may affect his ability to concentrate at work, may make friendships more tenuous... and should he seek another "nest to sleep in," trouble is sure to follow.
