Proverbs 22:28

Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.

Ver. 28. Remove not the ancient landmark.] Unless ye covet a curse. Deu 27:17 Let levellers look to it, and know that property is God's ordinance; Act 5:4 Psa 17:14 that magistracy is the hedge of a nation; a and that "he that breaks a hedge, a serpent shall bite him"; Ecc 10:8 that the ministry is Christ's own institution; Eph 4:11 and that lay preachers may look to speed as Nadab and Abihu, as Uzzah and Uzziah, or as other usurpers: See Trapp on " Deu 19:14 "
