chief judge; whoever he might be; to whom he was a subordinate。 (6) This
chief judge would either be Joshua; the supreme captain of the whole
people; or one of the tribal chiefs who had been entrusted; after the
division of the tribes; with the right of consulting the high priest
concerning the affairs of his tribe; of deciding on peace or war; of

doing; gave him the right of consulting the high priest; of appointing
judges; &c。 (11) In fact he endowed him with all the rights over the ten
tribes; which Rehoboam retained over the two tribes。 (12) Consequently
Jeroboam could set up a supreme council in his court with as much right
as Jehoshaphat could at Jerusalem (2 Chron。 xix:8)。 (13) For it is plain that
neither Jeroboam; who was king by God's command; nor Jeroboam's
subjects; were bound by the Law of Moses to accept the judgments of
Rehoboam; who was not their king。 (14) Still less were they under the
jurisdiction of the judge; whom Rehoboam had set up in Jerusalem as
subordinate to himself。 (15) According; therefore; as the Hebrew dominion
was divided; so was a supreme council setup in each division。 (16) Those
who neglect the variations in the constitution of the Hebrew States; and
confuse them all together in one; fall into numerous difficulties。
Chapter XIX。 'Endnote 33'。 (1) I must here bespeak special attention
for what was said in Chap。 XVI。 concerning rights。
