John Gill, on Prov 23:20
John Gill · 1697–1771
Prov 23:20 · Douay-Rheims
“Be not in the feasts of great drinkers, nor in their revellings, who contribute flesh to eat:”
On this verse:
“Be not amongst winebibbers,.... Who drink to excess, otherwise wine may be drank, provided moderation is used; but it is not good to be in company with, excessive drinkers of it, lost a habit of excessive drinking should be acquired; among riotous eaters of flesh; flesh may be lawfully eaten, but not in a riotous manner, so as to indulge to gluttony and surfeiting; nor should such persons be kept company with that do so, lest their ways should be learned and imitated.”
