This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.
Ver. 28. And he made as though he would, &c.] So did the angels to Lot, Gen_19:2. See the like, Jos_8:5-6 1Ki_3:24. If Solomon might make as though he would do an act that was unlawful, we may surely do the like in things indifferent. Yet this was never done, as is well observed, but, 1. By those that had authority over others; 2. For some singular good to them with whom they thus dealt.
