Juvenile Government a Curse
Isaiah 3:4-8
And I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them.…


If it is in itself generally a misfortune when the king of a country is a lad (Ecclesiastes 10:16), it is doubly so when the princes or magnates surrounding end advising him are also youths or youngsters in the bad sense of the term...Varying humour, utterly unregulated and unrestrained, rules supreme.

(F. Delitzsch.)
