Hatred makes mountains out of mole hills, but love covers, or puts out of sight, and enables one to overlook insults and wrongs.
Adam Clarke comments:
[Hatred] seeks for occasions to provoke enmity. It delights in broils. On the contrary, love conciliates; removes aggravations; puts the best construction on every thing; and pours water, not oil, upon the flame.
Commentator F. C. Cook writes,
[Love] first hides, does not expose, and then forgives and forgets all sins.
