Wesley's Notes for 1 Chronicles 4:24

4:22 Had dominion - Which they ruled in the name and for the use ofthe kings of Judah, to whom Moab was subject from David's time.Ancient things - The sense is those blessed times are long since past.Our ancestors had the dominion over the Heathen, but their degenerateposterity are slaves in Chaldea, were they are employed as pottersor gardeners, or in other servile works.

4:23 There are - He seems to oppose their present servitude to theirformer glory, and to shew their mean spirits that had rather tarry amongthe Heathen to do their drudgery, than return to Jerusalem to serveGod and enjoy their freedom. The king - Of Babylon: esteeming it agreater honour to serve that earthly monarch in the meanest employments,than to serve the king of kings in his temple.
