First,1 Who is meant by the King of Princes. We are here to understand the King of Assyria, because he was a great King whose Nobles were Princes, and we find this both by Scripture and likewise by humane Story; in 2 King. 18. 24. How then wilt thou turn away the face of one Captain of the least of my Masters Servants. And in Isa. 36. 13. Hear the word of the great King, the King of Assyria. And how wilt thou turn away the face of the Captains of the least of my Masters Servants. His Captains and Nobles were as Princes.2 And so Josephus in his 1. Book, 10. Chapter, as I remember saith, That at the time before Sodoms destruction, the Assyrians were Lords of All Asia, so that the Assyrian was a great King, and here called the King of Princes.
