Cross-References
I will say to one of them, ‘Please put your jar down so I can drink.' Then let her say, ‘Drink, and I will also give water to your camels.' If that happens, I will know she is the right one for your servant Isaac and that you have shown kindness to my master."
"Before I finished my silent prayer, Rebekah came out of the city with her water jar on her shoulder. She went down to the spring and got water. I said to her, ‘Please give me a drink.'
She quickly lowered the jar from her shoulder and said, ‘Drink this. I will also get water for your camels.' So I drank, and she gave water to my camels too.
Open your homes to each other, without complaining.
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Fret not thyself because of evil [men],.... Because of their outward prosperity and worldly happiness, any more than rejoice at their adversity; neither do the one nor the other; where the one prevails, the other does also; by the frequent repetition of this advice, it looks as if this evil is what good men are prone to, and which was very common in Solomon's time, and in the time of his father David, from whom he seems to have borrowed these words, Psalms 37:1; see Proverbs 23:17;
neither be thou envious at the wicked; though they may stand when thou fallest, or be in prosperity when thou art in adversity; the reasons follow.
