Who can stretch forth his hand against the Lord's Anointed and be guiltless? But before whom should David have been guilty? Or to whom accountable, if he had consented? for he was (as I may say) Heir apparent to the Crown by Divine Designation: And was not the King his implacable Enemy, that had persecuted him with the utmost of malice and virulency, against Law and against Reason? and had not God (as Abishai urged to him) delivered his Enemy into his hand, by casting all his Army into a deep sleep? and had cut them off, and the King with them, Who should have called David to an account for it? |
