And the king answered the people roughly<\/strong>,…. In a blustering manner, gave them hard words and severe menaces, being worked up to such a spirit by his young counsellors:<\/p>\n and forsook the old men’s counsel that they gave him<\/strong>: to give them good words and kind promises.<\/p>\n 1Ki 12:13 And the king answered the people roughly, and forsook the old men’s counsel that they gave him;<\/p>\n Ver. 13. And the king answered the people roughly.<\/strong> ] But to his great loss; for he lost those ten tribes with a churlish breath, whom he would, and might not, recover with blood: being so much more wilful than his father, as less wise; all head and no heart.<\/p>\n gave him = counseled him. <\/p>\n answered: 1Ki 20:6-11, Gen 42:7, Gen 42:30, Exo 5:2, Exo 10:28, Jdg 12:1-6, 1Sa 20:10, 1Sa 20:30, 1Sa 20:31, 1Sa 25:10, 1Sa 25:11, 2Sa 19:43, Pro 10:11, Pro 10:32, Pro 15:1, Pro 18:23, Ecc 10:12, Jam 3:17 <\/p>\n roughly: Heb. hardly, Gen 16:6 <\/p>\n forsook: Pro 13:20 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: 1Ki 12:7 – speak good Ecc 10:6 – Folly<\/p>\n 1Ki 12:13-15. The king answered the people roughly He affected to be haughty and imperious, and fancied he could carry all before him with a high hand, and therefore would rather run the risk of losing them, than deny himself so far as to give them good words. Thus many ruin themselves by consulting their humour more than their interest. For the cause was from the Lord Who, having determined, in punishment of Solomons idolatries and criminal pleasures, to take the greater part of the kingdom away from his son, did not restrain Rehoboam from following the dictates of his own imperious temper, and ambitious views; but gave him up to the foolish and fatal mistake of answering the people according to the advice of his young and hot-headed counsellors, whereby their affections were alienated from him, and he lost more than half of his empire. Thus God, in his adorable providence, serves his own wise and righteous purposes, by the imprudences and iniquities of men, and snares sinners in the work of their own hands. They that lose the kingdom of heaven, throw it away as Rehoboam did his, by their own wilfulness and folly. Reader, take care that this be not thy case.<\/p>\n And the king answered the people roughly, and forsook the old men’s counsel that they gave him; And the king answered the people roughly,….
