There is a beautiful instruction veiled under this. The honey in the carcase of the savage, may not unaptly represent the benefits which result to believers from Adam's fall, and the momentary triumphs of Satan. As no one would expect to find anything good in the carcase of a lion, so no one would suppose the Lord should, in the after stages of our warfare, bring good out of evil. But so it is: the malice of Satan ultimately produces glory to God, and good to his tried ones. It affords sweet food, the victories of our Jesus. And the trials must he among the all things which work together for good to them that love God. Let every tried soul think of this. Romans 8:28.
