Egypt abounded in horses; and the desire of multiplying these would induce the prince to encourage a trade with that kingdom; and this might make way for the Israelites being again subjugated by the Egyptians, or at least corrupted by their idolatries and vices. Whereas, it was the command of God that they should no more return thither, but be totally detached from them. Besides, they might be tempted to extend their dominion by means of cavalry, and so get scattered among the surrounding idolatrous nations, and thus cease to be that distinct, separate people, which God intended they should be. 1Sam 8:11; 2Sam 8:4; 1Kgs 1:5, 1Kgs 4:26, 1Kgs 10:26-28; 2Chr 9:25; Ps 20:7; Isa 36:8-9; Hos 14:3 cause Isa 31:1-3; Jer 42:14; Ezek 17:15 Ye shall henceforth Deut 28:68; Exod 13:17, Exod 14:13; Num 14:3-4; Jer 42:15-16; Hos 11:5 multiply wives Gen 2:24; 2Sam 3:2-5; 1Kgs 11:1-4; Neh 13:26; Mal 2:15; Matt 19:5 neither shall he 1Kgs 10:21; Ps 62:10; Prov 30:8-9; Matt 6:19-20, Matt 13:22, Matt 19:23-24; Luke 12:15; 1Tim 6:9, 1Tim 6:17 that he shall 2Kgs 11:12 a copy Mishneh hattorah hazzoth, "a duplicate of this law." translated by the Septuagint, το δευτερονομιον τουτο, this Deuteronomy.
