Judges 1:1-8  PP13

(1.)What a great man this Adoni-bezek had been,

(2.) how great in the field, where armies fled before him,

(3.) how great at home, where kings were set with the dogs of his flock;

(4.)yet now himself a prisoner, and reduced to the extremity of meanness and disgrace.

(5.) See how changeable this world is, and how slippery its high places are. Let not the highest be proud, nor the strongest secure, for they know not how low they may be brought before they die.

            how justly he was treated as he had treated others.

how honestly he owned the righteousness of God herein: As I have            done, so                

            God has requited me.

See the power of conscience, when God by his judgments awakens                         it,

             How it brings sin to remembrance, and subscribes to the justice of            God.

            He that in his pride had set God at defiance now yields to him,

 

             And reflects with as much regret upon the kings under his table as            ever he had looked upon them with pleasure when he had them      there.
