be_v so_o far_o from_o take_v away_o his_o life_n that_o his_o heart_n smite_v he_o for_o cut_v off_o the_o skirt_n of_o his_o garment_n and_o we_o ought_v to_o observe_v the_o reason_n david_n give_v why_o he_o dare_v not_o hurt_v saul_n because_o he_o be_v the_o lord_n anoint_v which_o be_v the_o very_a reason_n the_o apostle_n give_v in_o the_o 13._o rom._n 12._o because_o the_o power_n be_v ordain_v of_o god_n and_o he_o that_o resist_v the_o power_n resist_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n for_o to_o be_v anoint_v of_o god_n signify_v no_o more_o than_o that_o he_o be_v make_v king_n by_o god_n thus_o josephus_n expound_v beinganointed_a by_o god_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d one_o who_o have_v the_o kingdom_n bestow_v on_o he_o by_o god_n and_o in_o another_o place_n one_o who_o be_v ordain_v by_o god_n for_o it_o seem_v by_o this_o phrase_n he_o look_v upon_o the_o external_a ceremony_n of_o anoint_v to_o be_v like_o imposition_n of_o hand_n which_o in_o other_o case_n consecrate_v person_n to_o peculiar_a office_n for_o this_o external_a unction_n be_v only_o a_o visible_a sign_n of_o god_n designation_n of_o they_o to_o such_o a_o office_n and_o when_o that_o be_v plain_a they_o be_v as_o much_o god_n anoint_v without_o this_o visible_a unction_n as_o with_o it_o cyrus_n be_v call_v god_n anoint_v though_o he_o never_o be_v anoint_v by_o any_o prophet_n but_o only_o design_v for_o his_o kingdom_n by_o prophecy_n 45._o isa._n 1._o and_o we_o never_o read_v in_o scripture_n that_o any_o king_n have_v this_o external_a unction_n who_o succeed_v in_o the_o kingdom_n by_o right_a of_o inheritance_n unless_o the_o title_n and_o succession_n be_v doubtful_a and_o yet_o they_o be_v the_o lord_n be_v anoint_v too_o that_o be_v be_v place_v in_o the_o throne_n by_o he_o so_o that_o this_o be_v a_o eternal_a reason_n against_o resist_v sovereign_a prince_n that_o they_o be_v set_v up_o by_o god_n and_o invest_v with_o his_o authority_n and_o therefore_o their_o person_n and_o authority_n be_v sacred_a but_o yet_o there_o be_v some_o man_n who_o from_o the_o example_n of_o david_n think_v they_o can_v prove_v the_o lawfulness_n of_o a_o defensive_a though_o not_o a_o offensive_a war._n for_o david_n when_o he_o flee_v from_o saul_n make_v himself_o captain_n of_o four_o hundred_o man_n 1_o sam._n 22.2_o which_o number_n soon_o increase_v to_o six_o hundred_o 1_o sam._n 23.13_o and_o still_o every_o day_n increase_v by_o new_a addition_n 1_o chron._n 12.1_o now_o why_o shall_v he_o entertain_v these_o man_n but_o to_o defend_v himself_o against_o the_o force_n of_o saul_n that_o be_v to_o make_v a_o defensive_a war_n whenever_o he_o be_v assault_v by_o he_o 1._o in_o answer_n to_o this_o i_o observe_v that_o david_n invite_v none_o of_o these_o man_n after_o he_o but_o they_o come_v volunteer_n after_o a_o belove_a captain_n and_o general_n which_o show_v how_o formidable_a he_o can_v have_v make_v himself_o when_o such_o number_n resort_v to_o he_o of_o their_o own_o accord_n 2._o when_o he_o have_v they_o he_o never_o use_v they_o for_o any_o hostile_a act_n against_o saul_n or_o any_o of_o his_o force_n he_o never_o stand_v his_o ground_n when_o he_o hear_v saul_n be_v come_v but_o always_o flee_v and_o his_o man_n with_o he_o man_n who_o be_v never_o use_v to_o flee_v and_o be_v very_o ready_a to_o have_v serve_v he_o against_o saul_n himself_o will_v he_o have_v permit_v they_o and_o i_o suppose_v they_o will_v not_o call_v this_o a_o defensive_a war_n to_o fly_v before_o a_o enemy_n and_o to_o hide_v themselves_o in_o cave_n and_o mountain_n and_o yet_o this_o be_v the_o only_a defensive_a war_n which_o david_n make_v with_o all_o his_o man_n about_o he_o nay_o all_o that_o he_o will_v make_v according_a to_o his_o profess_a principle_n that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a to_o stretch_v out_o his_o hand_n against_o the_o lord_n be_v anoint_v and_o when_o these_o man_n be_v pursue_v as_o david_n be_v by_o a_o enrage_a and_o jealous_a prince_n we_o will_v not_o charge_v they_o with_o rebellion_n though_o they_o fly_v before_o he_o by_o thousand_o in_o company_n 3._o yet_o there_o be_v sufficient_a reason_n why_o david_n shall_v entertain_v these_o man_n who_o voluntary_o resort_v to_o he_o though_o he_o never_o intend_v to_o use_v they_o against_o saul_n for_o some_o of_o they_o serve_v for_o spy_n to_o observe_v saul_n motion_n that_o he_o may_v not_o be_v surprise_v by_o he_o but_o have_v timely_a notice_n to_o make_v his_o escape_n and_o the_o very_a presence_n of_o such_o a_o number_n of_o man_n about_o he_o without_o any_o hostile_a act_n preserve_v he_o from_o be_v seize_v on_o by_o some_o officious_a person_n who_o otherwise_o may_v have_v deliver_v he_o into_o saul_n hand_n and_o he_o be_v anoint_v by_o samuel_n to_o be_v king_n after_o saul_n death_n this_o be_v the_o first_o step_v to_o his_o kingdom_n to_o have_v such_o a_o retinue_n of_o valiant_a man_n about_o he_o which_o make_v his_o advancement_n to_o the_o throne_n more_o easy_a and_o discourage_v any_o opposition_n which_o may_v otherwise_o be_v make_v against_o he_o as_o we_o see_v it_o prove_v in_o the_o event_n and_o have_v reason_n to_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v thus_o order_v by_o god_n for_o that_o very_a end_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o gad_n the_o prophet_n and_o abiathar_n the_o priest_n who_o be_v the_o only_a man_n who_o escape_v the_o fury_n of_o saul_n when_o he_o destroy_v the_o priest_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v in_o david_n retinue_n and_o that_o david_n enterprise_v nothing_o without_o first_o ask_v counsel_n of_o god_n but_o he_o who_o have_v anoint_v he_o to_o be_v king_n now_o draw_v force_n after_o he_o which_o after_o saul_n death_n shall_v facilitate_v his_o advancement_n to_o the_o kingdom_n 2_o dly_z it_o be_v object_v further_o that_o david_n intend_v to_o have_v stay_v in_o keilah_n and_o to_o have_v fortify_v it_o against_o saul_n have_v not_o he_o be_v inform_v that_o the_o man_n of_o the_o city_n will_v have_v save_v themselves_o by_o deliver_v he_o up_o to_o saul_n 1_o sam._n 23._o now_o to_o maintain_v any_o strong_a hold_v against_o a_o prince_n be_v a_o act_n of_o war_n though_o it_o be_v but_o a_o defensive_a war._n and_o i_o grant_v it_o be_v so_o but_o deny_v that_o there_o be_v any_o appearance_n that_o david_n ever_o intend_v any_o such_o thing_n david_n and_o his_o man_n by_o god_n appointment_n and_o direction_n have_v fight_v with_o the_o phil●●tins_n and_o smite_v they_o with_o a_o great_a slaughter_n and_o save_v keilah_n from_o they_o and_o as_o it_o be_v probable_a do_v intend_v to_o have_v stay_v some_o time_n in_o keilah_n but_o david_n have_v hear_v that_o saul_n intend_v to_o come_v against_o keilah_n to_o destroy_v the_o city_n and_o take_v he_o and_o inquire_v of_o the_o lord_n about_o it_o and_o receive_v a_o answer_n that_o saul_n will_v come_v against_o the_o city_n he_o inquire_v again_o whethe●_n the_o man_n of_o keilah_n will_v deliver_v he_o up_o to_o saul_n and_o be_v answer_v that_o they_o will_v and_o upon_o this_o he_o and_o his_o man_n leave_v keilah_n and_o betake_v themselves_o to_o the_o strong_a hold_v in_o the_o wilderness_n but_o now_o it_o be_v likely_a that_o if_o david_n have_v have_v any_o design_n to_o have_v fortify_v keilah_n against_o saul_n he_o will_v have_v be_v afraid_a of_o the_o man_n of_o the_o city_n he_o have_v six_o hundred_o man_n with_o he_o in_o keilah_n a_o victorious_a army_n which_o have_v late_o destroy_v the_o philistine_n who_o oppress_v they_o and_o therefore_o can_v easy_o have_v keep_v the_o man_n of_o keilah_n too_o in_o awe_n if_o he_o have_v please_v and_o have_v put_v it_o out_o of_o their_o power_n to_o deliver_v he_o to_o saul_n but_o all_o that_o david_n design_v be_v to_o have_v stay_v there_o as_o long_o as_o he_o can_v and_o when_o saul_n have_v draw_v nigh_o to_o have_v remove_v to_o some_o other_o place_n but_o when_o he_o understand_v the_o treacherous_a inclination_n of_o the_o man_n of_o keilah_n and_o be_v resolve_v against_o all_o act_n of_o hostility_n he_o hasten_v his_o remove_n before_o saul_n draw_v near_o so_o that_o these_o man_n must_v find_v some_o other_o example_n than_o that_o of_o david_n to_o countenance_v their_o rebellion_n against_o their_o prince_n for_o david_n never_o rebel_v never_o fight_v against_o saul_n but_o when_o he_o have_v a_o very_a potent_a army_n with_o he_o he_o and_o his_o man_n always_o flee_v and_o use_v themselves_o in_o the_o wilderness_n and_o place_n of_o difficult_a access_n the_o sum_n be_v this_o god_n from_o the_o very_a beginning_n set_v up_o such_o a_o supreme_a and_o sovereign_a power_n in_o the_o jewish_a nation_n as_o can_v not_o as_o ought_v
