PREVIOUS CHAPTER - NEXT CHAPTER - HELP





  1  Jonathan discloses his father's purpose to kill David.
 4  He persuades his father to reconciliation.
 8  By reason of David's good success in a new war, Saul's
    malicious rage breaks out against him.
12  Michal deceives her father with an image in David's bed.
18  David comes to Samuel in Naioth.
20  Saul's messengers sent to take David,
22  and Saul himself, prophesy.


VERSE 1 
 - And Saul.
   Saul's enmity now burst forth, in the avowed purpose of
   putting David to death; and nothing less than the especial
   interposition of Providence could have saved David's life,
   when every officer about the king's person, and every
   soldier, had positive orders to dispatch him.

 - an image.  Heb. teraphim.
   * Ge 31:19 *marg:
   * Jud 17:5; 18:14,17 Ho 3:4
- a pillow.
  Rather, "the net-work of goat's hair at its (the Teraphim's)
  pillow;"  for the {kevir,} (whence the Chaldee and Syriac
  {kavreetho,} a honey-comb, from its net-like form), seems to
  have been a kind of mosquito-net, which, says Dr. Shaw, is "a
  close curtain of gauze, used all over the East, by people of
  fashion, to keep out the flies."  That they had such anciently
  cannot be doubted.  Thus when Judith had beheaded Holofernes
  in his bed, (ch. 13:9, 15) "she pulled down the canopy (or the
  mosquito net, [            ,] from [             ,] a gnat, or
  mosquito, whence our word canopy) wherein he did lie in his
  drunkenness, from the pillars."

VERSE 14 
 - she said.
   * Jos 2:5 2Sa 16:17-19; 17:20

VERSE 15 
 - Bring him.
  The eastern beds consist merely of two thick cotton quilts,
  one of which, folded double, serves as a mattress, the other
  as a covering.  Such seems to have been the bed of David,
  which could easily have been carried, with himself in it, to
  the presence of Saul.

   * :6 Job 31:31 Ps 37:12 Pr 27:3,4 Ro 3:15

VERSE 16 
 - And when.
  It is highly probable that David, when supposed to be sick,
  was thought to be hid in the harem or chamber of Michal.  "The
  harems," says De La Motraye, "are sanctuaries, as sacred and
  inviolable, for persons pursed by justice for any crime, debt,
  etc., as the Roman Catholic churches in Italy, Spain,
  Portugal, etc."  Thus we find, that to effect his purpose,
  Saul sent messengers to Michal, but they treated her harem
  with too much respect to enter it at first; but being
  authorised by Saul, they entered even into her chamber; and
  during the delay occasioned by respect for the privacy of
  Michal, David escaped.  Compare the Note at Ge 24:67.
