See Pro 30:8-9<\/em><\/span> above.<\/p>\n When he reigneth; <\/B>when he is advanced to great power and dignity; for such a one is ignorant and unfit for his place, and therefore commits many errors; he is poor, and therefore an insatiable oppressor, according to Pro 28:3<\/span>; he is proud and imperious, and being maligned and hated by others, he is provoked to hate them, and to be injurious and cruel to them. <\/P> A fool, <\/B>a conceited and wilful fool, or all obstinately wicked man, <\/P> when he is filled with meat; <\/B>either, <\/P> 1. When he is glutted with meat or drink, which dulls mens reason, and heats their blood, and stirs them up to many insolencies. Or rather, <\/P> 2. When he abounds in wealth, which in that case is like a sword in a madmans hand, being an instrument and occasion of innumerable wickednesses and mischiefs, as appears from common experience. <\/P> <\/p>\n For a servant, when he reigneth<\/strong>,…. Being unfit for it through his education, not having been trained up in and learned the arts of government and maxims of it; and through the disposition of his mind, which is mean, abject, and servile; and as he has been used himself when a servant, so he will use others c and through his circumstances, being poor, he will take oppressive methods to become rich; and being raised from a low estate, he is the more imperious, proud, and haughty d; all which and more make his reign intolerable; see Pr 19:10<\/span>. This may be applied to antichrist, the “servus servorum”, who in a haughty, tyrannical, and insolent manner, exalts himself above all that is called God: and reigns over the kings of the earth, at least has done so, and that in such a manner as was unbearable; deposing kings at pleasure, disposing of their kingdoms, and trampling upon their necks, and making their subjects his vassals; see 2Th 2:4<\/span>;<\/p>\n and a fool, when he is filled with meat<\/strong>; as Nabal at his feast, when he behaved so intolerably in his cups towards David and his messengers, that he determined on his destruction, had not Abigail interposed,<\/p>\n 1Sa 25:10<\/span>; and there are many such fools, who having their bellies full of food, and their heads full of liquor, are very overbearing in company, and give their tongues such a loose as is very disturbing: or this may intend such fools, or wicked men, who are full of wealth and riches, and being purse proud, are exceeding haughty and insolent; set their mouths against the heaven, and blaspheme God that is in it; and their tongues walk through the earth, and spare none, but lash all in an insufferable manner. These disquiet families, neighbourhoods, communities, and commonwealths; see Ps 73:7<\/span>.<\/p>\n c “Nec bellua tetrior ulla est, quam servi rabies in libera colla furentis”, Claudian. in Eutrop. l. 1. v. 183, 184. d “Asperius nihil est humili, cum surgit in altum”, Claudian. ib. v. 181.<\/p>\n (22) For a servant when he reigneth.<\/strong>The mischief done by Oriental favourites at court, who often began life as slaves, was proverbial.<\/p>\n A fool <\/strong>(nbhl<\/em>).See <\/em>above, on Pro. 17:7<\/span>. It is only when he has to work hard for his living that he will behave himself decently; if he gets a little money, it will soon be wasted in idleness and self-indulgence.<\/p>\n Pro 30:22 For a servant when he reigneth; and a fool when he is filled with meat;<\/p>\n Ver. 22. For a servant when he reigneth.<\/strong> ] As Jeroboam, Saul, Zimri, Herod, Heliogabalus, Phocas. See Trapp on “<\/em> Pro 19:10 “<\/em> Vespasian only, of all the emperors, is said to have been better for his advancement. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n For a fool when he is filled with meat.<\/strong> ] When his belly is filled with God’s “hid treasure”; Psa 17:14 when he prospers and hath what he will. Prosperity is hard meat to fools; they cannot digest it. a<\/em> They grow giddy, as weak heads do after a cup of generous wine, and lay about them like madmen; the folly of these rich fools is foolishness with a witness.
