Foxes
Foxes
From the well known subtilty of this creature, the sacred writers make use of his name, by way of describing craft, and hypocrisy, and guile. Hence false prophets are called in Scripture foxes. (Eze 13:4) And the church in the Canticles is forewarned against them. (Son 2:15) The Lord Jesus makes application of the name to Herod. (Luk 13:32)
