To be in such a place of trust he must have been in the king's confidence; for no eastern potentate would have a cup-bearer to whom he could not trust his life, poison being often administered in that way. It was an office much desired, because it gave access to the king in those seasons of hilarity when men are most disposed to grant favours. 2:1; Ge 40:2,9-13,21,23; 41:9Psalms 20:1-4

1 David, praying for Solomon, shews the goodness and glory of his kingdom, and in type of Christ's kingdom18 He blesses God. A.M. 2989. B.C. 1015. (Title.) A Psalm.This Psalm seems to have been composed by David in his last days, when he had set his beloved son on the throne. "Then," says Calmet, "transported with joy and gratitude, he addressed this Psalm to God, in which he prays Him to pour out His blessings on the young king, and upon the people. He then, wrapped up in a divine enthusiasm, ascends to a higher subject; and sings the glory of the Messiah, and the magnificence of his reign." for. or, of.127:1; *title Give.1Ki 1:39-53; 1Ch 22:12,13; 29:19; 2Ch 1:10; Isa 11:2; Joh 3:34Heb 1:8,9the king's.1Ki 1:47,48; 2:1-4; Jer 23:5,6Jeremiah 29:7
