VER. 5. In the day of our King, the Princes have made him sick with bottles of wine, be stretched out his hand with scorners.
There is no preposition in, in the Hebrew, 'tis only, The day of our King. 1The people being leavened with Jeroboam's Idolatry, they now make their acclamations in honour of their King,2 and rejoice in the way of their worship which they had from their King, which he & his Princes had set up, & would not regard the requests and petitions of some few who desired it, might not be established, and though they were bound in conscience to go up to Jerusalem, yet notwithstanding the King would send forth his Edicts, to tell the people there should be no more going up to Jerusalem, but to Dan and Bethel, now at this they rejoice and cry out, Oh the day of our good King which hath set his good people at liberty and eased us of our great journey to Jerusalem! (to the danger of the Kingdom) and is an enemy to those precise people.
