Wesley's Notes for 1 Kings 1:50

1:48 Blessed, &c. - It is a great satisfaction to good men, when theyare going out of the world, to see their children rising up in their stead,to serve God and their generation: and especially to see peace uponIsrael, and the establishment of it.

1:51 His servants - He owns Solomon as his king, and himself ashis servant and subject; and being sensible of his guilt, and of thejealousy which kings have of their competitors, could not be satisfiedwithout Solomon's oath.
