Proverbs25:21
Verſ. 21. If thine enemy be hungry] Eliſha did ſo: he feaſted his Perſecutours, (2 King. 6.) by a noble revenge; and provided a table for thoſe who had provided a grave for him. Thoſe Syrians came to Dothan full of bloudy purpoſes to Eliſha: he ſends them from Samaria full of good chear and jollity. Thus,Dr. Hall's contempt. thus ſhould a Chriſtian puniſh his purſuers: no vengeance but this is Heroical and fit for imitation.
