In this she was but following her father’s example ( 1Sa 19:6<\/em><\/span>), and with more excuse. Compare the deceit practised by Rahab (Jos 2:4<\/span> ff.); by the woman at Bahurim (2Sa 17:20<\/span>); and in modern times, by Grotius’ wife, who to save her husband represented the box in which he was concealed as a box of theological books. Scripture affirms the universal duty of Truth without any exception (Lev 19:11<\/span>), nor can it he understood to sanction breaches of this general law by recording them without disapproval. It is left to the casuist to discuss whether any necessity is sufficient to justify a falsehood or an act of deception. See Whewell’s Elements of Morality<\/em>, Chaps. 15, 16.<\/p>\n And when the messengers were come in<\/strong>,….

So have persecutors been frequently frustrated, as those that sought after Jeremiah and Baruch, Athanasius, Luther, and others whom the Lord hid till the storm was over.<\/p>\n And when: It is highly probable that David, when supposed to be sick, was thought to be hid in the harem or chamber of Michal. “The harems,” says Deut. Lam. Motraye, “are sanctuaries, as sacred and inviolable, for persons pursed by justice for any crime, debt, etc., as the Roman Catholic churches in Italy, Spain, Portugal, etc.” Thus we find, that to effect his purpose, Saul sent messengers to Michal, but they treated her harem with too much respect to enter it at first; but being authorised by Saul, they entered even into her chamber; and during the delay occasioned by respect for the privacy of Michal, David escaped. 1Sa 19:16 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: 2Ch 18:24 – into an inner chamber Psa 59:8 – Thou<\/p>\n And when the messengers were come in, behold, [there was] an image in the bed, with a pillow of goats’ [hair] for his bolster. 16.
