19<\/strong>. And ye have this day rejected your God<\/em> ] Once more the prophet is directed to rebuke the people for their ingratitude and unbelief. See above on 1Sa 8:6<\/span>.<\/p>\n ye have said unto him<\/em> ] The request made to Samuel was virtually addressed to God.<\/p>\n by your tribes, and by your thousands<\/em> ] The natural subdivision of the nation into tribes:<\/em> of the tribes into families<\/em> or clans:<\/em> of the families into houses:<\/em> of the houses into men<\/em> (Jos 7:14<\/span>): was supplemented by Moses with an artificial organization of thousands, hundreds, fifties<\/em>, and tens<\/em> (Exo 18:25<\/span>). The thousand<\/em> corresponded to the family<\/em>, and the terms appear to be used here as synonymous, Cp. ch. 1Sa 23:23<\/span>; Jdg 6:15<\/span>; Jos 22:14<\/span>.<\/p>\n For the use of thousand as equivalent to family, see 1Sa 23:23<\/span>; Jdg 6:15<\/span> margin. In Num 1:16<\/span> it may mean whole tribes.<\/P> <\/p>\n Verse 19<\/span>. Present yourselves – by your tribes<\/B><\/I>] It appears that, in order to find out the proper person who should be made their king, they must determine by lot:<\/P> 1. The tribe<\/I>.<\/P> 2. The thousands<\/I> or grand divisions<\/I> by families.<\/P> 3. The smaller divisions<\/I> by families. And,<\/P> 4. The individual<\/I>.<\/P> When the lot was cast for the tribe, Benjamin<\/I> was taken; when for the thousand<\/I>, the division of Matri<\/I> was taken; when for the family<\/I>, the family of Kish<\/I> was taken; when for the individual, Saul<\/I>, the son of Kish, was taken.<\/P> <\/p>\n Ye have this day rejected your God; <\/B>you this day declare that you persist in your former act of rejecting Gods government: See Poole “1Sa 8:7<\/span>“. <\/P> Who himself saved you; <\/B>who by his own special providence took care to raise up judges and saviours for you, and to deliver you at all times, when you needed his help, and did not by your sins obstruct it. <\/P> Ye have said unto him, <\/B>i.e. unto me his prophet and ambassador; and consequently unto the Lord, whom I represented, and in whose name I spake and acted. <\/P> By your tribes, and by your thousands; <\/B>for each tribe was divided into thousands, Num 10:36<\/span>; Deu 33:17<\/span>; Jos 22:14<\/span>,21<\/span>; Mic 5:2<\/span>, as in England counties are into hundreds. <\/P> <\/p>\n And ye have this day rejected your God<\/strong>,…. As their king, by desiring another to be set over them;<\/p>\n who himself saved you out of all your adversity and your tribulations<\/strong>; that they had been in at any time in Egypt, in their passage through the wilderness to Canaan, and after they were settled there:<\/p>\n ye have said unto him, [nay], but set a king over us<\/strong>: they did as good as say God should not be their King, but they would have one set over them like the kings of the nations about them; Samuel reminds them of this their request and resolution to have a king, which they had expressed some time ago, that it might appear to them that this was wholly of their own seeking; the motion came from themselves, and not from the Lord, nor from Samuel, and therefore, whatever ill consequences might follow upon it, they had none to blame but themselves:<\/p>\n now therefore present yourselves before the Lord by your tribes, and by your thousands<\/strong>; by the heads of their tribes, and by the rulers of the thousands into which their tribes were divided, that it might be known either by Urim and Thummim, or rather by casting lots, out of which tribe, and out of which thousand, house, and family in it, their king was to be chosen; which method, an it would clearly appear to be a choice directed by the Lord, so it would prevent all contention and discord among themselves.<\/p>\n 1Sa 10:19 And ye have this day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and your tribulations; and ye have said unto him, [Nay], but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes, and by your thousands.<\/p>\n Ver. 19. And ye have said unto him.<\/strong> ] Because to me. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Nay, but set a king over us.<\/strong> ] Here he taxeth them with singular ingratitude, incredulity, and folly, in that they would rather trust in a man whom they knew not how he would prove, than in God, whose power and goodness they had so often experienced. And this they persisted to do, refusing to be ruled by any reason, Regiumque, nomen, cunctis fere liberis gentibus semper invisum, efflictim desiderantes,<\/em> a<\/em> and still calling for a king upon any conditions. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n a<\/em> Sulp. Sever.<\/p>\n Nay. Some codices, with one early printed edition, Septuagint, Syriac, and Vulgate, have this word in the text. <\/p>\n before the LORD = before Jehovah: i, e. in Mizpeh, 1Sa 10:17. <\/p>\n And ye have: 1Sa 8:7-9, 1Sa 8:19, 1Sa 12:12, 1Sa 12:17-19 <\/p>\n by your tribes: Num 17:2, Jos 7:14-26, Mic 5:2 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Deu 31:14 – presented Jos 24:1 – presented Jdg 8:23 – the Lord 1Sa 14:38 – Draw ye near 1Ki 12:19 – Israel 1Ch 15:25 – captains Hos 13:11 – General Mar 8:31 – rejected Luk 17:25 – rejected Joh 12:48 – rejecteth 1Th 4:8 – despiseth<\/p>\n 1Sa 10:19. Your God, who himself saved you, &c. By raising up judges whenever you cried to him for help, who never failed to conquer your enemies. Ye have said unto him, Nay, &c. When he desired you to continue under his government you refused, and would not be denied in what you asked. Now, therefore, &c. He puts them upon choosing their king by lot, that all might know God had chosen Saul, (for the disposal of the lot is of the Lord,) and to prevent all dispute and exception.<\/p>\n And ye have this day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and your tribulations; and ye have said unto him, [Nay], but set a king over us.
