7. In his days shall the righteous flourish. Where
truth and righteousness are on the throne, the best people prosper most. A
righteous king is the patron and producer of righteous subjects. And abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth. Where Jesus reigns he is
known as the true Melchizedek, King both of righteousness and peace. Peace
based upon right is sure to be lasting, but no other will be. Many a so-called
Holy Alliance has come to the ground because craft formed the league and
oppression was the design of it; but when Jesus proclaims the great Truce of
God, the peace is not superficial or short-lived; it is abundant in its depth
and duration. Let all hearts and voices welcome the King of nations.
