16 Have you found honey ? Eat only what you need , That you not have it in excess and vomit it.

17 Let your foot rarely be in your neighbor's house , Or he will become weary of you and hate you.

Commentary on Proverbs 25:17

We cannot be upon good terms with our neighbours, without discretion as well as sincerity. How much better a Friend is God than any other friend! The oftener we come to him, the more welcome.
