Reading for February 17th

Read proverbs 25.15-28. In verses 21-22: An enemy's vulnerability should not be made an occasion for settling old scores (so also Ex 33.4). Allow God's justice its proper scope (compare 20.22 and 24.17-18). Heap coals of fire on their heads alludes to no known practice. It may be hyperbole for punishment. Romans 12.20 cites the Greek version. Comments or Questions..
