CHAPTER X.
MISCELLANEOUS In Matthew, ch.v.Jesus says, "ye have heard that it was said, that shalt love thy neighbour and hate thine enemy.'" But this is no where said in the Law, or the Prophets; but, on the contrary, we read directly the reverse.

For it is written, Ex.xxiii.

"If thou find the ox of thine enemy or his ass going astray, thou shalt certainly bring him back to him." "If thou meet the ass of him that hateth thee, lying under his burden, and wouldest forbear to help him, thou shalt surely help him." Again, Levit.xix.

"Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart; rebuke thy neighbour, nor suffer sin upon him.

Thou shalt not revenge, nor keep anger, (or bear any grudge,) against the children of thy people; but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself; I am the Lord." So also in Prov.xxxiv.
