In Matthew 24:48, the servant assumes the master delays, leading to misbehavior—directly mirroring the adulteress exploiting her husband's absence.

Mark 13:34-36 describes a master leaving his house on a journey and commanding watchfulness—the same setting as the husband's absence used to justify sin.

Luke 12:45 shows the servant believing his lord tarries and then misbehaving—parallel to the adulteress using the husband's journey to commit sin.

Numbers 5:13 provides the legal case of a woman committing adultery while her husband is unaware—the exact situation the adulteress describes.

In Matthew 24:43, the master's ignorance of the thief's arrival parallels the husband's absence—both create conditions for wrongdoing.

Luke 12:39 echoes the same principle: the master's lack of awareness provides opportunity for disaster, just as the husband's absence does.

Luke 12:46 adds the master's sudden return and punishment—the consequence implied but not stated in the Proverbs scenario.
