1 Kings - 1:10 Meaning
“But Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he called not.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
1:5-10 Indulgent parents are often chastised with disobedient children, who are anxious to possess their estates. No worldly wisdom, nor experience, nor sacredness of character, can insure the continuance in any former course of those who remain under the power of self-love. But we may well wonder by what arts Joab and Abiathar could be drawn aside.
“And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.”
