What was Malcolm's test of mac-duff?
The future King Malcolm III [d. November 13, 1093] wanted the throne of Scotland. He didn't want to make the mistake of his father, King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040], and trust the wrong people. Indeed, his father had trusted Macdonwald, who rebelled against his sovereign and his country; the Thane of Cawdor, who betrayed his king and his country to King Sweno of Norway; and Macbeth, who killed him. So Malcolm wanted to make sure that Macduff had no ambitions other than to avenge the murder of his entire family and household under Macbeth's orders.Also, Malcolm's theory was that Macduff praised Macbeth highly (and the feeling was returned), even though he is now a victim of Macbeth's tyrannical power (when Macbeth had his family killed). "This tyrant .../was once thought honest, you have loved him well" (12-13); it is because of the reasoning presented in this quote that Malcolm thinks that Macduff might want to betray him to Macbeth.
