1Ki 12:7 Pr 15:1
SEV Biblia
Y ellos le hablaron, diciendo: Si buscares el bien a este pueblo, y los agradares, y les hablares buenas palabras, ellos te servirán perpetuamente.
Matthew Henry Commentary
- The ten tribes revolt from Rehoboam.
--Moderate counsels are wisest and best. Gentleness will do what violence will not do. Most people like to be accosted mildly. Goo words cost only a little self-denial, yet they purchase great things No more needs to be done to ruin men, than to leave them to their ow pride and passion. Thus, whatever are the devices of men, God is doin his own work by all, and fulfilling the word which he has spoken. N man can bequeath his prosperity to his heirs any more than his wisdom though our children will generally be affected by our conduct, whethe good or bad. Let us then seek those good things which will be our ow for ever; and crave the blessing of God upon our posterity, in preference to wealth or worldly exaltation _________________________________________________
