   The preceding twenty verses, from the 12th to the 31st
   inclusive, the 41st, and from the 54th to the end of this
   chapter, with the five first verses and the 9th, 10th, 11th,
   17th, 18th, and 19th, of ch. 18, are all wanting in the
   Vatican copy of the LXX.; and they are supposed by Dr.
   Kennicott, and others, to be an interpolation.  But, as Bp.
   Horsley observes, it appears, from many circumstances of the
   story, that David's combat with Goliath was many years prior
   to Saul's madness, and David's introduction to him as a
   musician.  In the first place, David was quite a youth when he
   engaged with Goliath, (ver. 33, 42:)  when introduced to Saul
   he was of full age, (ch. 16:18.)  Again, this combat was his
   first appearance in public life, and his first military
   exploit, (ver. 36, 38, 39:) when introduced as a musician, he
   was a man of established character, and a man of war (ch.
   16:18.)  Now the just conclusion is, that the last ten verses
   of ch. 16 have been misplaced; their true place being between
   the ninth and tenth verses of ch. 18.  Let them be removed
   there, and the whole apparent disorder will be removed.

   Parallel instances of vaunting occur in some writers of a more
   recent date:--The conspirators against the emperor Maximinus
   having slain him, his son, and several of his best friends,
   threw out their bodies to be devoured by dogs and the fowls of
   the air.  This custom appears to have been frequently
   threatened; and, however shocking to human feelings, was often
   carried into effect.

 * So David prevailed.
   The tradition of the combat between David and Goliath, in
   which the latter was killed, is preserved among the Arabs; for
   he is mentioned in the Koran, where he is called Galut or
   Jalut.  The Arabs also call the dynasty of the Philistine
   kings, who reigned in Palestine when the Hebrews came there,
   Galutiah, or Jalutiah.  Achmed Al Fassi says, "Those kings
   were as well known by the name of Jalaut, as the ancient kings
   of Egypt by that of Pharaoh.  David killed the Jalaut who
   reigned in his time, and entirely rooted out the Philistines,
   the rest of whom fled into Africa, and from them descended the
   Brebers or Berbers, who inhabit the coast of Barbary."  It is
   remarkable that the Berbers themselves should acknowledge
   their descent from the Philistines.  "The name Goliath, which
   they pronounce Sghiàlud, is very common among the Brebers, and
   the history of the champion of the Philistines is very well
   known to the Moors.  When children quarrel, and the bigger one
   challenges the smaller to fight the latter answers, 'Who will
   fight with you?  {Enta men ulid Sgiàlud.}  You are of the race
   of Golaith.'  The Jews who dwell among them, on the mountains,
   all call them Philistines."

  1  Jonathan loves David.
  5  Saul envies his praise;
 10  seeks to kill him in his fury;
 12  fears him for his good success;
 17  offers him his daughters for a snare.
 23  David persuaded to be the king's son-in-law, gives two
     hundred foreskins of the Philistines for Michal's dowry.
 28  Saul's hatred and David's glory increase.

 * the soul of Jonathan.
   The modesty, piety, and courage of David were so congenial to
   the character of the amiable Jonathan, that they attracted his
   most cordial esteem and affection; so that the most intimate
   friendship subsisted between them from that time, and they
   loved each other with pure hearts fervently.  Their friendship
   could not be affected by the common vicissitudes of life; and
   it exemplifies by fact what the ancients have written on the
   subject; [Ten philian isoteta einai, kai mian psychen ton
   philon heteron auton.]  "Friendship is an entire sameness, and
   one soul:  a friend is another self."

 # 14:1-14,45 Ge 44:30 Jud 20:11 1Ch 12:17 Ps 86:11 Col 2:2
 * loved him.
 # 3 19:2 20:17 De 13:6 2Sa 1:26 Pr 18:24

   Presents of clothes or rich robes, as tokens of respect or
   friendship, are frequent in the East.

   The original {shalishim,} is rendered by the Vulgate
   {sistris.}  The {sistrum} was an ancient Egyptian instrument
   made of brass, with three, and sometimes more brass rods
   across; which, being loose in their holes, made a jingling
   noise when shaken.

 # 16:14,15 19:9 26:19
 * and he prophesied.
   {Wyyithnabbai,} rather, "and he pretended to prophesy; for the
   verb is in {Hithpaël,} the signification of which conjugation
   is not only reflex action, but also affectation of the action:
   Jer 29:26, 27.  The meaning seems to be, that Saul, influenced
   by the evil spirit, feigned to be prophesying, the better to
   conceal his murderous intentions, and to render David
   unsuspicious.

 # 16:16,23
 * and there was.
   {Wehachanith beyad Shäool,} rather, "and the javelin was in
   the hand of Saul;" for the javelin or spear was the emblem of
   regal authority; and kings had it always in their hand, as may
   be seen represented on ancient monuments.  In ancient times,
   says Justin, kings used a spear instead of a sceptre.
15645

 # 16 Nu 27:16,17 2Sa 5:2 Ps 121:8
   Saul was sensible that the Lord was departed from him; while
   he perceived, with evident sorrow of heart, that the Lord had
   given David peculiar wisdom, and that he was with him to
   prosper all his undertakings.  This increased the disquietude
   of his malevolent mind, and his dread of David as a prevailing
   rival:  he therefore removed him from his presence.  This
   impolitic step, however, served the more to ingratiate David
   with the people, by affording him the opportunity of leading
   them forth to victory over their enemies.
