In the original Greek text, the word we translate as 'enemy' is more accurately described as a 'personal enemy', ie someone within your community/family whom you are at odds with. There is a Greek word for 'hostile/public enemies' that is not used in the text, but due to a lack of distinction within the English language, it is easy to read it that way.

Yeah, the whole out of context thing. If he actually wanted to know, he would make the attempt. But he isnt. He is just trying to put his political points of view into the Bible thats not there.
