VIII. David had many open, and some secret Enemies, as Doeg, Ahithophel, &c. His own Son also rose up in Rebellion against him: So Jesus Christ had, and still hath, many open and secret Enemies: The Jews, who were called his own People, plotted against him; nay, and one of his own Disciples, that eat Bread with him, lifted up the Heel against him, and at last treacherously betrayed him with a Kiss.
