heat most prevails.
* 2Sa 11:2 1Ki 16:9 Pr 24:33,34 1Th 5:3-7
VERSE 6
- as though.
It is still the custom of the East, according to Dr. Perry, to
allow the soldiers a certain quantity of corn, with other
articles of provision, together with some pay: and as it was
the custom also to grind the corn, as needed, at the break of
day, these two captains very naturally went the day before to
the palace, where the king's stores appear to have been kept,
to fetch wheat, in order to distribute it to the soldiers
under them, to be ground at the accustomed hour in the
morning. The princes of the East, in those days, as appears
from the history of David, reposed on their couches till the
cool of the evening: they therefore came in the heat of the
day, when they knew their master would be resting on his bed;
and as it was a necessary to have the corn before it was
needed, their coming at this time, though it might be earlier
than usual, excited no suspicion.

When those difficulties dispirit us which should rather

our more watchful neighbors. Love not sleep, lest thou come
to poverty and ruin. The idle soul is an easy prey to the
destroyer.
