that_o saul_n will_v come_v down_o to_o keilah_n god_n answer_v he_o that_o he_o will_v thereupon_o the_o second_o time_n he_o ask_v he_o whether_o the_o man_n of_o keilah_n will_v deliver_v he_o and_o his_o man_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o saul_n or_o no_o god_n answer_v he_o that_o he_o will_v deliver_v he_o up_o by_o this_o last_o it_o do_v clear_o appear_v that_o if_o so_o be_v the_o keilite_n will_v have_v be_v true_a to_o david_n and_o have_v stand_v to_o he_o he_o will_v have_v maintain_v the_o town_n against_o saul_n and_o have_v defend_v himself_o in_o it_o otherwise_o why_o shall_v david_n ask_v god_n the_o second_o time_n whether_o the_o man_n of_o keilah_n will_v deliver_v he_o up_o and_o his_o man_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o saul_n or_o no_o he_o may_v have_v go_v his_o way_n when_o that_o he_o hear_v saul_n will_v come_v down_o without_o ask_v any_o more_o question_n unless_o we_o will_v say_v that_o the_o second_o question_n which_o david_n propound_v to_o ask_v of_o god_n be_v frivolous_a and_o vain_a and_o so_o consequent_o the_o answer_n that_o god_n give_v it_o which_o i_o suppose_v there_o be_v none_o will_v be_v so_o bold_a as_o to_o affirm_v this_o be_v the_o very_a case_n of_o sir_n john_n hotham_n in_o hull_n who_o for_o this_o very_a action_n his_o majesty_n be_v please_v to_o proclaim_v he_o traitor_n then_o again_o it_o may_v be_v further_o say_v of_o david_n if_o he_o have_v not_o have_v a_o purpose_n to_o have_v resist_v saul_n in_o case_n of_o exigency_n and_o extremity_n what_o do_v he_o with_o 600._o man_n about_o he_o he_o may_v have_v flee_v from_o saul_n when_o he_o be_v come_v towards_o he_o without_o such_o a_o train_n and_o guard_n of_o man_n attend_v he_o and_o so_o have_v save_v himself_o without_o they_o nay_o he_o may_v in_o all_o probability_n have_v escape_v his_o hand_n better_a for_o have_v he_o not_o have_v so_o many_o with_o he_o he_o may_v have_v keep_v himself_o the_o more_o close_o and_o secret_a so_o that_o he_o can_v not_o have_v be_v so_o easy_o discover_v and_o beside_o this_o we_o read_v 1_o chron._n 12.22_o that_o there_o come_v to_o david_n to_o help_v he_o before_o saul_n death_n a_o host_n like_o the_o host_n of_o god_n and_o what_o be_v all_o this_o preparation_n and_o assistance_n for_o nothing_o one_o more_o example_n i_o will_v bring_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n and_o that_o be_v of_o king_n vzziah_n 2_o chron._n 26_o 16._o who_o encroach_v upon_o the_o office_n of_o the_o priest_n and_o will_v take_v upon_o he_o to_o offer_v incense_n in_o the_o temple_n of_o the_o lord_n contrary_a to_o the_o express_a commandment_n of_o god_n whereupon_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o 17._o verse_n that_o azariah_n the_o priest_n go_v in_o after_o he_o and_o with_o he_o fourscore_o priest_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v valiant_a man_n and_o they_o withstand_v vzziah_n the_o king_n and_o say_v unto_o he_o it_o pertain_v not_o to_o thou_o vzziah_n to_o burn_v incense_n unto_o the_o lord_n but_o to_o the_o priest_n the_o son_n of_o aaron_n that_o be_v consecrate_v to_o burn_v incense_n go_v out_o of_o the_o sanctuary_n for_o thou_o have_v trespass_v neither_o shall_v it_o be_v for_o thy_o honour_n from_o the_o lord_n god_n then_o vzziah_n be_v wroth_a and_o have_v a_o censor_n in_o his_o hand_n to_o burn_v incense_n and_o while_o he_o be_v wroth_a with_o the_o priest_n the_o leprosy_n even_o rise_v upon_o his_o forehead_n before_o the_o priest_n in_o the_o house_n of_o the_o lord_n beside_o the_o incense_n altar_n then_o azariah_n the_o chief_a priest_n and_o all_o the_o priest_n look_v upon_o he_o and_o behold_v that_o he_o be_v leprous_a in_o his_o forehead_n thrust_v he_o out_o from_o thence_o if_o this_o be_v not_o resistance_n i_o know_v not_o what_o be_v beside_o all_o this_o the_o more_o to_o stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o such_o ill_a affect_a person_n in_o our_o time_n that_o will_v take_v upon_o they_o to_o make_v much_o more_o of_o king_n than_o ever_o god_n make_v or_o do_v intend_v there_o be_v example_n even_o in_o the_o primitive_a time_n among_o the_o christian_n who_o have_v resist_v their_o king_n in_o their_o sinful_a and_o unlawful_a action_n as_o to_o instance_n in_o lycinius_n the_o emperor_n who_o have_v grant_v to_o the_o christian_n to_o enjoy_v their_o religion_n yet_o afterward_o turn_v persecutor_n they_o send_v for_o constantine_n the_o great_a to_o assist_v they_o against_o he_o and_o overthrow_v he_o and_o again_o be_v persecute_v by_o the_o king_n of_o persia_n the_o christian_n send_v for_o theodosius_n the_o emperor_n to_o help_v they_o against_o he_o and_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o if_o the_o ecclesiastical_a history_n of_o those_o time_n be_v search_v there_o may_v more_o example_n of_o this_o nature_n be_v find_v out_o but_o beside_o all_o this_o we_o have_v see_v and_o know_v the_o like_a in_o our_o own_o time_n as_o late_o in_o the_o scot_n who_o the_o king_n himself_o that_o now_o be_v acquit_v when_o he_o come_v to_o a_o right_a understanding_n so_o the_o protestant_n in_o france_n england_n all_o queen_n elizabeth_n day_n do_v help_v they_o in_o our_o day_n again_o in_o king_n charles_n his_o own_o reign_n we_o send_v over_o a_o great_a force_n in_o show_n at_o least_o to_o help_v rochel_n against_o the_o king_n of_o france_n so_o in_o high_a jermanie_n the_o prince_n there_o maintain_v their_o right_n against_o charles_n the_o 5_o and_o be_v help_v by_o france_n and_o england_n in_o the_o neatherland_n it_o be_v evident_a from_o the_o beginning_n now_o shall_v we_o take_v upon_o we_o to_o condemn_v all_o these_o church_n for_o so_o do_v then_o for_o the_o second_o which_o be_v the_o principal_a point_n here_o in_o dispute_n whether_o king_n in_o case_n they_o do_v tyrannize_v over_o their_o people_n oppress_v spoil_v and_o destroy_v their_o subject_n and_o do_v other_o such_o like_a wicked_a and_o unnatural_a action_n may_v have_v censure_n and_o punishment_n inflict_v upon_o they_o according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o their_o several_a offence_n they_o say_v where_o be_v there_o any_o example_n or_o express_v command_n in_o scripture_n for_o this_o answ_n it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v no_o example_n or_o command_v in_o scripture_n for_o this_o particular_a case_n or_o at_o least_o not_o as_o i_o know_v of_o yet_o that_o matter_n not_o so_o long_o as_o we_o have_v a_o rule_n to_o walk_v by_o and_o command_v in_o general_a that_o reach_n to_o all_o particular_n and_o for_o this_o the_o like_a may_v very_o well_o be_v say_v as_o may_v for_o parent_n murder_v of_o their_o child_n there_o be_v no_o direct_a law_n set_v down_o either_o divine_a or_o humane_a for_o the_o punishment_n of_o such_o the_o thing_n be_v so_o detestable_a and_o contrary_a to_o very_a nature_n that_o it_o may_v be_v conceive_v that_o there_o will_v be_v none_o such_o find_v but_o if_o there_o be_v there_o be_v general_a law_n in_o force_n for_o their_o censure_n and_o punishment_n as_o in_o case_n of_o murder_n and_o by_o how_o much_o the_o near_o the_o relation_n be_v the_o great_a be_v the_o bond_n and_o

punishment_n so_o i_o say_v though_o there_o be_v no_o particular_a law_n set_v down_o for_o the_o correct_v and_o punish_v of_o such_o king_n and_o prince_n as_o do_v oppress_v spoil_n and_o destroy_v their_o people_n yet_o so_o much_o be_v include_v in_o those_o general_a law_n both_o of_o god_n and_o man_n and_o so_o much_o the_o more_o liable_a be_v they_o to_o censure_n and_o punishment_n by_o how_o much_o they_o be_v ordain_v to_o be_v great_a instrument_n of_o the_o good_a and_o well_o be_v of_o their_o people_n than_o other_o be_v for_o this_o be_v the_o very_a nature_n and_o be_v of_o a_o king_n he_o be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o care_n and_o provide_v for_o the_o common_a vealth_n take_v pleasure_n in_o the_o commodity_n and_o profit_n of_o his_o subject_n and_o in_o all_o his_o do_n have_v respect_n to_o the_o prosperity_n of_o those_o over_o who_o he_o rule_v now_o what_o those_o general_a law_n be_v it_o be_v well_o know_v as_o for_o example_n this_o god_n

case_n the_o ruler_n or_o the_o king_n shall_v do_v thus_o that_o the_o like_a shall_v not_o be_v do_v unto_o they_o but_o god_n require_v that_o equity_n and_o justice_n be_v do_v alike_o upon_o all_o without_o respect_n of_o person_n as_o we_o well_o know_v that_o this_o be_v the_o charge_n that_o god_n have_v give_v deut._n 16.19_o thou_o shall_v not_o wrest_v judgement_n thou_o shall_v not_o respect_v person_n where_o god_n show_v thus_o much_o unto_o we_o that_o to_o respect_v the_o person_n of_o any_o in_o matter_n of_o judgement_n or_o justice_n be_v to_o wrest_v justice_n and_o to_o go_v aside_o from_o that_o which_o be_v right_a god_n will_v have_v equal_a and_o impartial_a judgement_n administer_v alike_o unto_o all_o and_o the_o reason_n hereof_o be_v give_v by_o the_o holyghost_n in_o the_o place_n before_o cite_v deut._n 13.11_o that_o all_o israel_n may_v hear_v and_o fear_v and_o do_v no_o more_o any_o such_o wickedness_n now_o there_o be_v none_o that_o will_v deny_v but_o that_o king_n by_o nature_n be_v as_o bad_a as_o any_o and_o be_v subject_a to_o be_v worse_o than_o any_o other_o by_o reason_n of_o those_o flatterer_n and_o evil_a counselor_n that_o usual_o be_v about_o they_o as_o we_o may_v see_v in_o the_o example_n of_o joash_n 2_o chron._n 24_o 17._o and_o of_o rehoboam_n 2_o chron_n 10.8_o etc._n etc._n shall_v it_o be_v so_o then_o that_o there_o be_v no_o law_n in_o force_n bind_v unto_o they_o as_o well_o as_o unto_o we_o and_o example_n of_o true_a and_o equal_a justice_n make_v upon_o they_o as_o well_o as_o upon_o other_o it_o be_v the_o very_a next_o way_n to_o open_v a_o gap_n to_o all_o king_n and_o prince_n to_o all_o manner_n of_o wickedness_n and_o licentiousness_n and_o to_o make_v they_o tyrant_n that_o otherwise_o will_v be_v good_a and_o gracious_a towards_o their_o people_n whereas_o this_o will_v be_v a_o very_a good_a mean_n to_o keep_v king_n in_o as_o well_o as_o other_o from_o run_v into_o such_o extravagant_a course_n to_o the_o dishonour_n of_o god_n and_o the_o destruction_n of_o their_o people_n as_o usual_o they_o be_v wont_v to_o do_v unless_o we_o will_v say_v that_o god_n have_v give_v unto_o king_n and_o prince_n a_o dispensation_n above_o all_o other_o to_o run_v headlong_o unto_o hell_n without_o control_n they_o that_o teach_v such_o doctrine_n by_o this_o now_o it_o appear_v what_o friend_n they_o be_v unto_o they_o whatsoever_o they_o may_v pretend_v who_o will_v make_v king_n of_o all_o other_o the_o most_o miserable_a by_o ascribe_v unto_o they_o a_o unrestrained_a liberty_n to_o all_o wickedness_n whatsoever_o to_o their_o destruction_n but_o here_o come_v in_o another_o objection_n for_o will_v some_o say_v again_o king_n be_v god_n anoint_a therefore_o man_n may_v not_o question_v they_o much_o less_o may_v they_o touch_v their_o life_n whatsoever_o their_o action_n be_v and_o thus_o much_o say_v david_n concern_v saul_n who_o be_v king_n of_o israel_n though_o he_o be_v a_o wicked_a king_n and_o his_o enemy_n that_o seek_v his_o life_n and_o that_o for_o no_o just_a cause_n neither_o yet_o when_o david_n have_v a_o opportunity_n to_o slay_v he_o 1_o sam._n 24_o 6._o he_o speak_v thus_o the_o lord_n forbid_v that_o i_o shall_v do_v this_o thing_n unto_o my_o master_n the_o lord_n anoint_v to_o stretch_v forth_o my_o hand_n against_o he_o see_v he_o be_v the_o anoint_a of_o the_o lord_n so_o again_o 1_o sam._n 26.9_o who_o can_v stretch_v forth_o his_o hand_n against_o the_o lord_n anoint_v and_o be_v guiltless_a to_o this_o i_o answer_v david_n be_v a_o private_a man_n notwithstanding_o he_o be_v saul_n successor_n by_o god_n appointment_n to_o the_o crown_n and_o so_o have_v no_o warrant_n to_o do_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o this_o as_o to_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o saul_n the_o king_n though_o he_o have_v do_v he_o or_o shall_v seek_v to_o do_v he_o never_o so_o much_o harm_n for_o in_o a_o case_n far_o inferior_a to_o this_o we_o know_v that_o if_o a_o private_a man_n be_v a_o thief_n and_o by_o law_n be_v condemn_v to_o die_v yet_o no_o man_n may_v lay_v violent_a hand_n upon_o he_o to_o take_v away_o his_o life_n but_o only_o in_o a_o legal_a way_n and_o by_o the_o executioner_n that_o be_v by_o authority_n appoint_v for_o this_o purpose_n if_o any_o man_n shall_v he_o will_v be_v account_v a_o murderer_n for_o so_o do_v and_o be_v liable_a to_o suffer_v the_o law_n in_o that_o case_n provide_v so_o than_o if_o this_o can_v be_v justifiable_a upon_o a_o private_a person_n condemn_v by_o law_n much_o less_o than_o upon_o a_o public_a person_n especial_o such_o a_o one_o as_o a_o king_n be_v and_o uncondemned_a too_o therefore_o in_o this_o case_n have_v david_n take_v away_o saul_n life_n who_o be_v then_o king_n of_o israel_n he_o have_v be_v much_o to_o blame_v and_o have_v sin_v exceed_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n wherefore_o david_n will_v not_o do_v it_o but_o we_o do_v not_o know_v what_o david_n will_v have_v do_v or_o what_o he_o may_v have_v do_v in_o case_n saul_n shall_v forceible_o have_v come_v upon_o he_o to_o have_v take_v away_o his_o life_n in_o his_o own_o just_a defence_n for_o his_o own_o safety_n and_o preservation_n for_o else_o for_o what_o end_n have_v david_n those_o 600._o man_n with_o he_o sure_o it_o will_v be_v answer_v and_o i_o believe_v the_o most_o malignant_a among_o they_o all_o will_v not_o deny_v it_o that_o he_o have_v they_o for_o his_o defence_n be_v it_o so_o then_o true_o i_o think_v that_o they_o that_o will_v defend_v themselves_o by_o arm_n and_o arm_a man_n must_v needs_o offend_v when_o they_o be_v offend_v for_o this_o be_v a_o mere_a conceit_n that_o even_o very_a child_n will_v be_v ready_a to_o laugh_v at_o to_o say_v that_o when_o a_o man_n enemy_n come_v against_o he_o to_o do_v he_o a_o mischief_n he_o must_v only_o defend_v himself_o but_o must_v not_o strike_v again_o for_o how_o be_v this_o possible_a for_o a_o man_n to_o defend_v himself_o from_o his_o enemy_n and_o yet_o not_o offend_v his_o enemy_n then_o for_o asmuch_o as_o king_n be_v call_v the_o anoint_a of_o the_o lord_n they_o be_v so_o call_v in_o two_o respect_n first_o either_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o anoint_v oil_n that_o be_v pour_v upon_o they_o by_o the_o performance_n of_o which_o ceremony_n they_o be_v

because_o of_o the_o anoint_v oil_n that_o be_v pour_v upon_o they_o by_o the_o performance_n of_o which_o ceremony_n they_o be_v inaugurize_v into_o their_o function_n whereof_o some_o there_o be_v that_o god_n do_v in_o a_o more_o especial_a manner_n thus_o institute_v and_o ordain_v even_o by_o his_o own_o immediate_a appointment_n as_o to_o wit_n saul_n david_n solomon_n jehu_n and_o hazael_n
