Milk; given strenuous conditions will produce curds. That is a constant. When the milk goes through the same process it produces curds. Likewise, every time a nose receives a sharp blow there will be blood. It doesn' matter what other circumstances are involved the blood will start when the nose is hit. The next comparision of verse 33 is the result of angry expressions. If I respond to you in anger, whether you responded that way first or not, how can I expect anything but strife. If I spend 2 hour in the sun with no sunscreen why would I be surprised to have a sunburn? The lesson of this verse is to measure our response to any other person. Even if that means taking time to ponder the situation a long time before responding at all. A lesson that I need to learn and practice.
It took me about 6 minutes to read this passage.
