Proverbs24:13
13 My son, eat thou honey , because it is good; and the honey-comb which is sweet to thy taste.
This is not a command but a corcession, and is here expressed onely to illustrate the following Verse. Honey in those parts was excellent, and an usual and acceptable food. See Deut. 8. 8. Iudg. 14. 18. 1 Sam. 14. 25.
Marginal references: Heb. [illegible: 1 word] thy Palate.
