But the LORD honors such choices on our part. Of course, sometimes we have to do this even when we don’t feel like doing it. The Apostle Paul restated this amazing truth in his list of attitudes and actions we are to practice in our dealings with others (Romans 12:9-21). As the modern wise saying goes – “kill them with kindness!” In doing so, I can really destroy my enemy – destroy them by making them my friend. So, taken together, these verses suggest – when I see my enemy struggling with something (hungry, thirsty), I should do something to help (food, drink). But our verses are using such an action as a metaphor to feeding that person and giving them drink. Of course, literally doing this burning coals thing would kill them. The first verse says if I see that someone who hates me, my enemy, “is hungry” or “thirsty” I am supposed to “give him food to eat” (and don’t poison it!) and/or “given him water to drink.” That is not generally my first response!īut the second verse adds, when I do respond like this, I “will heap burning coals on his head.” And, on top of that, “the LORD will reward me.” Now, that’s what I’m talking about! Jesus doesn’t allow us to hate our enemies (Mt 5:44), so if there is any hating going on, it’s their choice, not mine! Throughout the Bible, my enemy is not someone I hate – it’s someone who chooses to hate me. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head, and the LORD will reward you.Īnother enemy verse in Proverbs. If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat if he is thirsty, give him water to drink.
