their_o way_n as_o a_o hindrance_n to_o their_o base_a design_n meddle_v not_o with_o they_o that_o be_v give_v to_o change_n about_o the_o genuine_a mean_v of_o solomon_n in_o this_o place_n there_o be_v some_o difference_n between_o expositor_n though_o most_o of_o they_o do_v render_v it_o much_o according_a as_o it_o be_v render_v in_o our_o translation_n and_o i_o humble_o conceive_v that_o the_o best_a way_n of_o find_v out_o the_o full_a meaning_n of_o that_o wise_a king_n in_o this_o place_n be_v to_o observe_v well_o the_o state_n of_o those_o time_n wherein_o david_n and_o he_o successive_o reign_v over_o israel_n and_o if_o we_o carry_v our_o eye_n upon_o some_o occurrence_n in_o those_o time_n upon_o which_o king_n solomon_n in_o all_o likelihood_n do_v reflect_v here_o it_o will_v appear_v that_o though_o one_o interpretation_n may_v be_v preferable_a to_o another_o yet_o all_o interpretation_n may_v be_v so_o consistent_a as_o to_o deserve_v a_o share_n in_o our_o

meddle_v not_o with_o they_o that_o act_n their_o iniquity_n over_o again_o they_o that_o be_v disobedient_a and_o disloyal_a afresh_o they_o that_o repeat_v their_o old_a sin_n against_o the_o king_n and_o his_o regality_n they_o that_o be_v for_o a_o change_n but_o not_o of_o their_o own_o principle_n and_o course_n they_o that_o will_v fain_o change_v the_o state_n of_o affair_n but_o will_v no_o more_o change_v their_o own_o mind_n than_o the_o leopard_n change_v his_o spot_n or_o the_o ethiopian_a his_o skin_n as_o the_o expression_n be_v jer._n 13._o 23._o now_o if_o this_o interpretation_n carry_v it_o we_o may_v conceive_v some_o intimation_n to_o be_v give_v we_o here_o that_o there_o be_v a_o sort_n of_o evil_a man_n in_o solomon_n day_n who_o have_v bear_v his_o good_a father_n and_o he_o a_o inveterate_a grudge_n which_o for_o fear_n of_o the_o sword_n in_o the_o king_n hand_n they_o smother_v and_o keep_v secret_a for_o a_o while_n but_o when_o opportunity_n begin_v to_o smile_v and_o the_o water_n be_v like_a to_o be_v trouble_v and_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o kingdom_n be_v in_o some_o danger_n than_o they_o show_v the_o world_n that_o the_o king_n kindness_n and_o mercy_n have_v not_o reclaim_v nor_o wrought_v any_o repentance_n in_o they_o but_o they_o be_v the_o very_a same_o man_n still_o and_o as_o ready_a as_o ever_o to_o strike_v at_o the_o government_n and_o be_v only_o embolden_v by_o indulgence_n and_o act_v so_o as_o if_o clemency_n which_o be_v repute_v a_o virtue_n in_o every_o prince_n have_v be_v a_o kind_n of_o hurtful_a vice_n in_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n i_o can_v be_v positive_a that_o this_o be_v the_o direct_a meaning_n of_o solomon_n in_o my_o text_n and_o yet_o out_o of_o respect_n to_o the_o judgement_n of_o those_o who_o have_v give_v we_o their_o sense_n to_o this_o purpose_n i_o be_o loath_a to_o lose_v this_o interpretation_n or_o slight_o to_o pass_v it_o by_o for_o if_o we_o go_v back_o as_o far_o as_o the_o day_n of_o solomon_n we_o may_v see_v that_o by_o what_o he_o have_v find_v by_o his_o own_o woeful_a experience_n he_o have_v great_a reason_n to_o caution_n all_o the_o world_n for_o the_o future_a to_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o those_o intractable_a and_o ungrateful_a man_n who_o repent_v not_o of_o their_o disloyalty_n to_o god_n and_o the_o king_n but_o persist_v and_o go_v on_o in_o their_o wickedness_n fond_a of_o the_o same_o principle_n long_v for_o the_o same_o opportunity_n hanker_a after_o the_o same_o success_n and_o tread_v in_o the_o same_o step_n which_o they_o tread_v in_o before_o if_o we_o look_v into_o the_o second_o book_n of_o samuel_n and_o the_o first_o book_n of_o the_o king_n wherein_o the_o end_n of_o david_n reign_n and_o all_o solomon_n be_v contain_v we_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o whole_a house_n of_o saul_n a_o very_a few_o except_v do_v bear_v a_o inveterate_a hatred_n against_o the_o house_n of_o david_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o the_o crown_n for_o saul_n have_v be_v a_o protector_n of_o israel_n but_o a_o very_a wicked_a one_o and_o his_o family_n and_o friend_n be_v deep_o gall_v at_o the_o heart_n when_o they_o consider_v how_o the_o sceptre_n be_v depart_v out_o of_o their_o hand_n and_o they_o be_v cashier_v the_o court_n and_o have_v no_o share_n in_o the_o government_n this_o be_v such_o a_o trouble_n and_o vexation_n to_o saul_n adherent_n that_o though_o david_n have_v spare_v their_o life_n and_o give_v they_o the_o quiet_a possession_n of_o their_o land_n and_o by_o many_o act_n of_o grace_n have_v endeavour_v to_o make_v himself_o and_o his_o government_n easie_n to_o they_o all_o yet_o the_o most_o princely_a favour_n can_v not_o oblige_v nor_o cure_v they_o of_o their_o venom_n but_o when_o absalom_n disturbance_n happen_v they_o discover_v the_o old_a sore_o that_o have_v be_v wrankle_v so_o long_o and_o labour_v to_o be_v revenge_v for_o the_o loss_n of_o the_o throne_n and_o to_o recover_v it_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a what_o be_v that_o act_n of_o shimei_n but_o a_o expression_n of_o the_o most_o incurable_a malice_n in_o 2_o sam._n 16._o for_o when_o the_o king_n

this_o same_o shimei_n make_v light_a of_o the_o king_n command_n and_o as_o he_o hate_v the_o father_n so_o he_o disobeyed_n the_o son_n insomuch_o that_o the_o king_n find_v there_o be_v no_o way_n
