1 Samuel 20:42
_ _ Jonathan said to David, Go in peace — The interview being a stolen one, and every moment precious, it was kindness in Jonathan to hasten his friend’s departure. |
1 Samuel 20:42
And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, forasmuch as we have (t) sworn both of us in the name of the LORD, saying, The LORD be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed for ever. And he arose and departed: and Jonathan went into the city.
(t) Which oath he calls the covenant of the Lord in (1 Samuel 20:8). |
- Go in peace:
1 Samuel 20:22 But if I say thus unto the young man, Behold, the arrows [are] beyond thee; go thy way: for the LORD hath sent thee away.
1 Samuel 1:17 Then Eli answered and said, Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant [thee] thy petition that thou hast asked of him.
Numbers 6:26 The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
Luke 7:50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
Acts 16:36 And the keeper of the prison told this saying to Paul, The magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore depart, and go in peace.

1 Samuel 20:23 And [as touching] the matter which thou and I have spoken of, behold, the LORD [be] between thee and me for ever.
|
- And he arose:
1 Samuel 23:18 And they two made a covenant before the LORD: and David abode in the wood, and Jonathan went to his house.
; The separation of two such faithful friends was equally grievous to them both, but David's case was the more deplorable. For when Jonathan was returning to his family and friends, David was leaving all his comforts, even those of God's sanctuary, and therefore his grief exceeded Jonathan's; or, perhaps it was because his temper was more tender and his passions stronger. They referred each other to the covenant of friendship that was between them, both of them being comforted thereby in this very mournful separation - "We have sworn both of us in the name of the Lord, for ourselves and our heirs, that we and they will be faithful and kind to each other from generation to generation."
