The Proverbs 31 woman does not follow the world’s standards of feminine achievement focused on physical beauty and womanly charm. Instead,
she has chosen to anchor her life on the “fear of Yahweh” (v. 30), the true basis of all wisdom. [Tom R. Hawkins, “The Wife of Noble Character in Proverbs 31:10–31,” Bibliotheca Sacra 153 (1996): 22.]
