11:43 Slept - This expression is promiscuously used concerning goodand bad; and signifies only, that they died as their fathers did.But did he repent before he died? This seems to be put out of disputeby the book of Ecclesiastes; written after his fall; as is evident,not only from the unanimous testimony of the Hebrew writers, butalso, from the whole strain of that book, which was written long afterhe had finished all his works, and after he had liberally drunk of allsorts of sensual pleasures, and sadly experienced the bitter effects ofhis love of women, #Eccles 7:17|, &c. which makes it more than probable,that as David writ #Psalm 51:1 |- 19.So Solomon wrote this book as a publick testimony and profession of hisrepentance.
