Psalms41:9

9. Yea, mine own familiar friend in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lift up his heel against me.

He means either A[illegible: 1+ letters]hitophel, or some other perfidio[illegible: 1+ letters]s Counsellor or Courtier, who was a Type of Iodas, to whom therefore it is applied, Ioh. 13. 18. as David was a Type of Christ, in being thus betrayed. So these Words were literally fulfilled in David, and yet the Holy Ghost which dictated them, looked further in them, even to Christ and Iodas, in whom they received a further and fuller Accomplishment. [illegible: 1+ letters] A Phrase implying, Injury joyned with Insolency and Contempt, taken from an un[illegible: 1+ letters]uly Horse, which Kicks at him, that owns and feeds him.
