1 Re 4:25

And Judah and Israel dwelt safely, every man under his vine and under his fig tree, from Dan even to Beersheba, all the days of Solomon.

Ver. 25. And Judah and Israel dwelt safely.] Heb., Confidently or securely, without fear of foreign invasions, or danger of homebred conspiracies: yet were they discontented at the present government, and therefore came crying to his son and successor, Alleva iugum, Ease our yoke laid upon us by thy father. So true is that saying of Thucydides, Aει τπ παραν βαρυ, the present government, though never so good, is ever grievous to the vulgar, who can neither rule well, nor obey willingly.
