CRITICAL NOTES.--+Lemuel.+ This Hebrew word signifies _"For God,"_ or
_"belonging to God,"_ and is regarded by most commentators as a
proper name. +The prophecy.+ Delitzsch, Stuart, and many other Hebrew
scholars render this word as a proper name, and read _"The words of
Lemuel, king of_ MASSA, _which his mother taught him."_ Miller reads
the verse, _"Words in respect to the Seed-of-God, a king; a prophecy
in agreement with which his mother disciplined him,"_ and, as in the
preceding chapter, applies it to Christ. +2. What,+ etc. "An
impassioned exclamation expressing inward emotion." (Zöckler.) "The
question," says Delitzsch, "which is at the same time a call, is like
a deep sigh from the heart of a mother concerned for the welfare of a
son." +3.+ The second clause reads literally _"nor thy ways to
destroy kings,"_ and hence some understand it as a warning against
warlike rapacity and lust of conquest, but, as Delitzsch remarks,
this does not stand well as the parallel to the warning in the first
clause. +4. Strong drink.+ (See on chap xx. 1.) +5. Any of the
afflicted.+ Literally _"The sons of want."_ +8. Such as are appointed
to destruction.+ Literally _"Children of leaving,"_ generally
understood to mean orphans. The twenty-two verses following form an
alphabetical song, each verse beginning with the several letters of
the Hebrew alphabet arranged in consecutive order. +10. Virtuous.+
Literally _"a woman of power."_ +Rubies,+ rather _"pearls."_ +11. He
shall have no need,+ etc. Rather, _"He shall not fail of spoil."_
"Strictly, 'the spoils of war,' a strong expression to denote his
rich profit." (Zöckler.) +15.+ This probably signifies the appointed
task for the day. +21. Scarlet.+ Delitzsch and Zöckler retain this
reading; the former remarks that "as high-coloured, it appears
dignified as well as preserves warmth." +22. Coverings,+ rather
_"coverlets,"_ as in chap. vii. 16, "a part of the furniture of the
bed." +25. She shall rejoice.+ Rather, _"She laugheth at the future,"
i.e.,_ she is not afraid of it, being fully prepared for all
emergencies. +26. Law of kindness.+ Delitzsch reads "Amiable
instruction." +30. Favour,+ _i.e., "outward grace."_ +Vain,+ or _"a
breath."_

DIVINE COMMANDS FROM A MOTHER'S LIPS.
+I. Two considerations made it obligatory upon Lemuel to attend to
this counsel of his mother.+ 1. _She was inspired to utter it._
However we may translate the word here rendered "prophecy" (see
Critical Notes), its place in the Holy Scriptures gives to it the
authority of a message from God. The words are not merely the results
of a tender and wise mother's own observation and experience, but
they are the utterances of a spirit under the special influence of
the Holy Ghost. Although, therefore, his mother's love, and,
doubtless, her holy example, ought to have been very powerful
incentives to attention and obedience, his obligation was increased
tenfold by the conviction he must have had that God spoke to him
through her lips. 2. _He was a king._ If men in every station of life
are bound to keep the paths of purity and charity, much more is it
the duty of one in a high place--the influence of whose actions
stretch so far beyond his immediate surroundings, and who holds in
his hand the destinies of so many besides his own. Because Lemuel had
been called by God to a throne, what he was and what he did concerned
not a few people only, but a nation, and this reflection ought to
have added great weight to his mother's words.
+II. The first and indispensable duty of a ruler is to rule himself.+
Every man is a little kingdom made up of many different and sometimes
opposing forces--of inclinations towards the earthly, the sensual,
and even the devilish, and of aspirations towards the heavenly, the
spiritual, and the godlike. There are lawful desires which, satisfied
in a lawful manner, may lead to much enjoyment and blessing, but
which, if allowed to rule the man, or even to have any share in the
government of the life, will degrade and may almost brutalise him.
Bodily appetites have their place in the constitution of man, but it
was never intended that they should be satisfied by breaking the
moral law; and when they lead to this, moral anarchy has set in, and
moral ruin is not far off. The two great sins of the body against
which Lemuel is here warned have in all ages shown how man can turn
blessings into curses by abusing and mis-using them, and the Word of
God and human history unite in proclaiming the truth that the Divine
intention is perverted when the body rules the man and not the man
the body. Every man is bound to be king of himself, and one who
aspires to be a king over others and is yet a slave to his own
unlawful passions will being upon himself the curse of man and the
judgment of God. On this subject see also on chap. vi. 24-35, page
89, and on chap. xxiii. 29-35, page 673.
+III. The obligation next in order is succour of the needy.+ In
former chapters we have considered the obligation which God lays upon
every man to consider the cause of the poor and afflicted. (See on
chaps. xiv. 20, page 370, and chap. xxiv. 11, page 680.) As we
remarked at the outset, duties which men owe to their fellow-men
multiply and become binding in proportion to opportunities. The king
of ancient times was but another name for one whose direct influence
over his subjects was greater than that of monarchs in our day. His
word was law, and the power of life and death was often in his hand
alone, and if he exercised self-denial and gave of his substance to
those in want, he might often by his individual action entirely
change the condition of half his subjects. The relations of society
have changed since then, and kings have no longer so exclusively the
power for good or ill, but their influence is still very great, and
if it is all exerted in favour of benevolence and justice, and they
live lives of self-denial and active compassion on behalf of others,
they will come up to the ideal picture here drawn for their imitation.
_OUTLINES AND SUGGESTIVE COMMENTS._
Verse 2. There was a threefold cord of maternal love which this
parent was wont to employ, and which remained in its form as well as
its power in the memory of her son. "My son" is the outmost and
uppermost aspect of the relation. This is a bond set in nature, felt
by the parties, and obvious to all. On this she leans first when she
makes an appeal to his heart. But at the next step she goes deeper
in. She recalls the day of his birth. She goes back to that hour when
nature's greatest sorrow is dispelled by nature's gladdest news. "A
man-child is born into the world." By the pains and joys of that hour
she knits the heart of her son to her own, and thereby increases her
purchase upon the direction of his life. But still one step farther
back can this mother go. Here is the "son of her vows." Before his
birth she held converse, not with him for God, but with God for
him.--_Arnot._
Verse 4. _It is not for kings_ to admit within their dominions anyone
that is stronger than themselves, and able to overthrow them. _It is
not for kings_ to harbour anyone within their dominions that is false
unto them, and ready to betray them; much more it is not for kings to
admit within themselves any immoderate quantity of wine, which soon
proveth too strong for them, and quickly with shame overthroweth
them.--_Jermin._
_MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH.--Verses_ 10-31.
A MODEL MATRON.
This picture of a faithful and kindly wife, mother, and mistress is
here placed before the youthful monarch as the ideal woman whom he is
to seek with all _diligence,_ because she is well worth any pains to
secure, and with much _discrimination,_ because she is a rarity, and
because there are many imitations of the real gem which look very
much like it before they are tested. This beautiful picture is held
to his view as the master holds some grand conception on canvas
before his pupil, in order that he may acquire a distaste for all
that comes short of it. This portrait may have been drawn by the
mother of Lemuel; in any case we may safely conclude that she was
such a woman herself, and if it came from another hand it is,
probably, her likeness drawn from life. We notice--
+I. The prominent features of her character.+ 1. _Her energy._ There
seems to be within her a spring of unfailing activity, and the
completion of one task is immediately followed by the beginning of
another. In her home she is astir before the dawn, and when her
domestic duties are completed she gives her mind to the transaction
of business without--to the best market in which to sell her goods,
and to buy all that she needs for the supply of her household. We
cannot conceive of this energetic spirit in a frail and sickly
body--she must have been physically healthy and strong, and we may
give her credit for having been observant of the laws of God in this
respect as in higher matters, and be sure that she avoided whatever
might weaken her body or deaden her intellect. This being the case,
her constant activity would be a pleasure, and would in itself
contribute to the maintenance of her bodily strength. 2. _Her
capability._ She was not only a great worker, but there was wisdom
behind the work--a brain directing the hands. There are many people
always busy, who yet accomplish but little, because their activity is
not wisely directed--indeed, energetic action without wisdom to guide
it, may be most disastrous in its effects. There is an abundance of
power in the locomotive, but if it is set in motion and left free
from wise control, it works ill instead of good. But this woman's
intellectual capacity equalled her active energy. She was a good
judge of the merchandise that she had to sell, and knew the value of
the land that she bought. She was methodical, and so able to arrange
the employments of all the household so that no confusion should
arise, and she could also show them with her own hands how to perform
their work, for _"she layeth her hands to the spindle,"_ and so
follows up her precept by example. Her capacity also manifested
itself to her _forethought_--in keeping her supply well ahead of her
demand. 3. _Her loving tenderness._ She might have been all that we
have thus far painted her, and yet not have made a happy home. If she
had been nothing more she might have been feared, and in some measure
respected, but she would not have been _loved._ Just as energy may be
dangerous without wisdom to guide it, so such capable energy may be
repellent without love to soften it. But her uncommon endowments and
attainments did not make her impatient with her inferiors, and she
was not so absorbed in providing for those at home as to forget the
poor outside. Her commands were given in a winning tone, and her
corrections in a loving spirit. She was more apt to instruct than to
reprove, and doubtless acted upon the principle that the "way to make
people better is to make the best of them."
+II. The root of all these excellencies.+ Although it is not
absolutely stated, it is implied that godliness was the source of
this symmetrical character--that it was the fear of the Lord which
enabled her to keep so even a balance of virtues as to stand forth a
perfect pattern to the women of every age and nation. The fear of God
had given her a right conception of her duties towards all mankind,
and especially of the sacred nature of her relationships as wife and
mother. She fully entered into the Divine idea of marriage, and this
made her the true helpmeet of her husband, and in regard to each son
and daughter she heard the voice of her God saying, "Take this child
and nurse it for me." She knew that faithfulness in all things was
expected of a servant of God, and that true godliness consists not so
much in the things done as in the spirit in which they are performed.
In this spirit of George Herbert she could say--
"Teach me, my God and King,
In all things Thee to see;
And what I do in anything
To do it as for thee.
"All may of Thee partake;
Nothing can be so mean
Which with this tincture (for Thy sake)
Will not grow bright and clean.
"This is the famous stone
That turneth all to gold;
For that which God doth touch and own
Cannot for less be told."
And thus living every day and always in conscious fellowship with the
Unseen, she would be too conscious of her own shortcomings to be
anything but tender towards the failings of others, and would not
forget that she owed all her success in life to the blessing of the
Lord, and held all her material good in stewardship for His service.
+III. The blessed results of all.+ She had an abundant and lasting
reward. Her husband's trust in her was undimmed by a single shadow;
whatever position she was called upon to sustain he felt fully
confident that she was equal to it, and that everything that he
possessed--from his reputation to his purse--was not only safe in her
hands, but had increased in worth through his connection with her.
Her words of loving counsel, and her useful and benevolent life, were
not lost upon her children, but as good seen sown in good ground
brought forth an abundant harvest in their filial reverence and noble
deeds. And this family blessedness was not a thing that could be hid,
but, like a candle of the Lord in a world of much moral darkness, it
shed its light all around, and blessed and stimulated others to fear
God, and so to serve their generation.
_OUTLINES AND SUGGESTIVE COMMENTS._
Verse 12. The manner of some is to do good with the one hand, and
with the evil of the other to spoil it; whereby they still remain to
be evil wives. Others will do good while the fit lasteth, but they
are weary of well-doing; whereas a good wife indeed will do good to
her husband all the days of her life. It is not said of _his_ life,
but of _hers._ For though he may be dead, she will do him good while
she liveth, by doing good to his children, to his friends, to his
memory.--_Jermin._
Verse 16. Some _consider_ but they buy not; some _buy_ but they
consider not; some consider and buy, but they _plant_ not; some
consider and buy and plant; but it is with the _rapine_ of their
hands, not _the fruit_ of their hands. That field is well bought,
where wisdom considereth what is bought, where ability buyeth that
which hath been considered, where care planteth that which hath been
bought, and where honesty giveth a blessing to that which hath been
planted.--_Jermin._
Verse 20. She doth not only open her hand, but stretcheth it (if I
may so make use of the word), as if she would hold more to give the
poor if she could. . . . And as if one hand were not enough for her
it is said she reacheth forth her _hands_; and if she had more than
two no doubt she would reach them all forth to the poor.--_Jermin._
Verse 22. It is precisely such a woman who should wear such garments.
The silk hangs all the more gracefully on her person that it was
wound and spun by her own hands. . . . This matron is not limited to
silk and purple; strength and honour are her clothing too. She may
safely wear elegant garments, who in character and bearing is elegant
without their aid. If honour be your clothing, the suit will last a
life-time, but if clothing be your honour, it will soon be worn
threadbare.--_Arnot._
Verse 26. There be may false keys which open the mouths of many, as
rashness, and choler, and pride, and folly, and the like. But there
is one right key, and that is wisdom. That it is which makes a
virtuous woman courteous to all, a flatterer to none, a tale-bearer
to none; that it is which maketh her to be familiar with a few, to be
just and true with every one: that it is which maketh her respectful
to her husband, lovingly grave to her children, awfully grave to her
servants; dutiful to her superiors, affable with her equals, friendly
to her neighbours, and not disdainful to her inferiors; that it is
which maketh her slow to speak, quiet in speaking, profitable by
speaking.--_Jermin._
Verse 29. By the benefit of a better nature, or civil education, or
for the praise of men, or for a quiet life, sure it is that all
unsanctified women, though never so well qualified, have failed, both
_quoad fontem, et quoad finem,_ for want of faith for the principle
and God's glory for the aim of their virtuous actions. And,
therefore, though they may be praiseworthy, yet they are far short of
this gracious matron. . . . "Better is pale gold than glittering
copper." (Bernard.) Say the world what it will, a drachm of holiness
is worth a pound of good nature.--_Trapp._
Verses 30 and 31. The lessons and where they began. Obedience is
traced up to faith. . . . As we traverse the various phases of her
character, we seem to be making our way over a well-watered and
fruitful region, until we reach at last the fountain of its
fertility. . . . Near the base of a mountain range, early in the
morning of the day and the spring of the year, you may have seen, in
your solitary walk, a pillar of cloud, pure and white, rising from
the earth to heaven. In the calm air its slender stem rises straight
like a tree, and like a tree spreads out its lofty summit. Like an
angel tree in white, and not like an earthly thing, it stands before
you. You approach the spot and discover the cause of the vision. A
well of water from the warm depths bursts through the surface there,
and this is the morning incense which it sends right upward to the
throne. But the water is not all thus exhaled. A pure stream flows
over the well's rocky edge, and trickles along the surface, a river
in miniature, marked on both sides by verdure, while the barrenness
of winter lies on the other portions of the field. . . . Such are the
two outgoings of a believer's life. Upward rises the soul in direct
devotion; but not the less on that account does the life flow out
along the surface of the world, leaving its mark in blessings behind
it wherever it goes. You caught the spring by surprise at dawn, and
saw incense ascending. At mid-day, when the sun was up, it rose
unseen. . . . Thus is it in the experience of living Christians in
the world. . . . The upright pillar is seldom visible, but the
horizontal stream is seen and felt to be a refreshment to all within
its reach.--_Arnot._
