Proverbs 15:17

Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a fatted ox with hatred.
All Commentaries on Proverbs 15:17 Go To Proverbs 15

Clement Of Alexandria

AD 215
“Herbs with love are better than a fatted calf with deceit.” This is reminiscent of what we said before, that herbs are not the Agape, but that meals should be taken with charity. A middle course is good in all things, and no less so in serving a banquet. Extremes, in fact, are dangerous, but the mean is good, and all that avoids dire need is a mean. Natural desires have a limit set to them by selfsufficiency. .
