             CONCLUDING REMARKS ON THE TWO BOOKS OF KINGS.
    
    The events detailed in these books are highly interesting and
    important.  The account of the wisdom, magnificence, and
    extended commerce of Solomon; the rash and impolitic conduct of
    Rehoboam; the disobedient prophet; the widow of Zarephath;
    Elijah and the prophets of Baal; Ben-hadad's pride and defeat;
    Elijah's assumption into heaven; Elisha's succession to his
    ministry, and the series of illustrious miracles he performed;
    the panic flight of the Syrians; the history of Ben-hadad and
    Hazael; and the predicted death of Ahab and Jezebel, and their
    children, are all pregnant with instruction, and have furnished
    themes for frequent dissertation.  We perceive in these
    impressive histories the characters and qualities of men painted
    with the utmost fidelity, and the attributes of God displayed
    with great effect:  we contemplate the exact accomplishment of
    God's promises and threatenings, the wisdom of his
    dispensations, and the mingled justice and mercy of his
    government.  The particulars and circumstances are sketched out
    with a brief and lively description, and the imagination lingers
    with pleasure in filling up the striking outlines presented to
    our view.  The authenticity of these books is attested by the
    prophecies they contain, which were subsequently fulfilled; by
    the citation of our Savior and his Apostles; by their universal
    reception by the Jewish and Christian churches; and by the
    corresponding testimonies of profane authors and ancient
    sculptures.
