Bible Comments

Absalom and all, &c. — Be it observed, to the comfort of all that fear God, he turns all mans hearts as the rivers of water. He stands in the congregation of the mighty, has an over — ruling hand in all counsels, and a negative voice in all resolves, and laughs at mens projects against his children.
