This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





When my mind was provoked to irregular practices, either by my own corrupt heart, or by Saul’s implacable rage and tyranny, or by the solicitation of any of my followers, as 1Sa 24,1Sa 26, I restrained and subdued all such evil motions.



As a child that is weaned of his mother, either,



1. As void of all that ambition and malice wherewith I am charged as a child newly weaned; or rather,



2. As wholly depending upon God’s providence for the way and. time of bringing me to the kingdom, as the poor helpless infant, when it is deprived of its natural and accustomed food, the mother’s milk, takes no care to provide for itself, but wholly relies upon its mother’s care and providence for its support.
