John Gill Commentary Proverbs 16:7

"When a man`s ways please Jehovah, He maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him." — Proverbs 16:7 (ASV)

When a man's ways please the Lord As they do when a man walks according to the rule of his word; when he walks as he has Christ for an example; when he walks after the Spirit, and not after the flesh; when he walks by faith, and does all he does in faith; without which it is impossible to please God, (Hebrews 11:6); and when all his ways and actions are directed to the glory of God;

he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him; as Abimelech with Isaac, Esau with Jacob; and the enemies of the church and people of God with then, in the latter day, (Revelation 3:9).
