* Whither, etc.  or, Did you not make a road.  And David.

 * Against.
   David here meant the Geshurites, and Gezrites, and Amalekites,
   which people occupied that part of the country which lies to
   the south of Judah.  But Achish, as was intended, understood
   him in a different sense, and believed that he had attacked
   his own countrymen.  David's answer, therefore, though not an
   absolute falsehood, was certainly an equivocation intended to
   deceive, and therefore incompatible with that sense of truth
   and honour which became him as a prince, and a professor of
   true religion.  From these, and similar passages, we may
   observe the strict impartiality of the Sacred Scriptures.
   They present us with the most faithful delineation of human
   nature; they exhibit the frailties of kings, priests, and
   prophets, with equal truth; and examples of vice and frailty,
   as well as of piety and virtue, are held up, that we may guard
   against the errors to which the best men are exposed.
