And the Lord stirred up an adversary unto Solomon, Hadad the Edomite, etc.] Though he did not take his kingdom from him for his sin, he chastised him with the rod of men, as he said he would; suffering one, and then another, to rise up and disturb his peace in his old age, (see <100714>2 Samuel 7:14) he was of the king’s seed in Edom; of the blood royal.
