1 Samuel 26:19
_ _ If the Lord have stirred thee up against me — By the evil spirit He had sent, or by any spiritual offenses by which we have mutually displeased Him.
_ _ let him accept an offering — that is, let us conjointly offer a sacrifice for appeasing His wrath against us.
_ _ if they be the children of men — The prudence, meekness, and address of David in ascribing the king’s enmity to the instigations of some malicious traducers, and not to the jealousy of Saul himself, is worthy of notice.
_ _ saying, Go, serve other gods — This was the drift of their conduct. By driving him from the land and ordinances of the true worship, into foreign and heathen countries, they were exposing him to all the seductions of idolatry. |
1 Samuel 26:19
The Lord — If the Lord hath by the evil spirit which he hath sent, or by his secret providence, directed thy rage against me for the punishment of thine, or my sins. An offering — Let us offer up a sacrifice to God to appease his wrath against us. Driven me — From the land which God hath given to his people for their inheritance, and where he hath established his presence and worship. Go serve — This was the language of their actions. For by driving him from God's land, and the place of his worship, into foreign and idolatrous lands, they exposed him to the peril of being either ensnared by their counsels, or examples; or forced by their power to worship idols. |
