Verse 3<\/span>. Call Jesse to the sacrifice<\/B><\/I>] The common custom was, after the blood of the victim had been poured out to God, and the fat burnt, to feast on the flesh of the sacrifice. This appears to have been the case in all, except in the whole burnt-offering<\/I>; this was entirely consumed.<\/P> <\/p>\n Call Jesse to the sacrifice, <\/B>i.e. invite him to the feast, which, after the manner, was made of the flesh of the sacrifice; and it belonged to Samuel, as the offerer of the sacrifice, to invite whom he pleased. <\/P> Whom I name, <\/B>i.e. whom I shall describe, as it were, by name. <\/P> <\/p>\n 3. call Jesse to the sacrifice<\/B>thatis, the social feast that followed the peace offering. Samuel, beingthe offerer, had a right to invite any guest he pleased.<\/P><\/p>\n And call Jesse to the sacrifice<\/strong>,…. His family, both him and his sons, to partake of the peace offerings; as every offerer had a right to invite his friends, and whomsoever he pleased, to eat of those parts of them which belonged to him, as a feast before the Lord:<\/p>\n and I will show thee what thou shall do<\/strong>; when Jesse and his family were with him:<\/p>\n and thou shalt anoint unto me him whom I name unto thee<\/strong>; that is, anoint him to be king over Israel, whom he should point out so plainly to him, as if he called him by name.<\/p>\n (3) And thou shalt anoint.<\/strong>From very early times the ceremony of anointing to important offices was customary among the Hebrews. In the first instance, all the priests were anointed (Exo. 40:15<\/span>; Num. 3:3<\/span>), but afterwards anointing seems to have been reserved especially for the high priest (Exo. 29:29<\/span>). Prophets also seem occasionally to have been anointed to their holy office. Anointing, however, was the principal ceremony in the inauguration of the Hebrew kings. It belonged in so especial a manner to the royal functions that the favourite designation for the king in Israel was the Lords anointed. In the case of David, the ceremony of anointing was performed three times(1) on this occasion by Samuel, when the boy was set apart for the service of the Lord; (2) when appointed king over Judah at Hebron (2Sa. 2:4<\/span>); (3) when chosen as monarch over all Israel (2Sa. 5:3<\/span>). All these official personages, the priest, the prophet, and peculiarly the king, were types of the great expected Deliverer, ever known as the Messiah, the Christ, the Anointed One.<\/p>\n Wordsworth curiously considers these three successive unctions of David figurative of the successive unctions of Christ: conceived by the Holy Ghost in the Virgins womb; then anointed publicly at his baptism; and finally, set at Gods right hand as King of the Universal Church in the heavenly Jerusalem.<\/p>\n 1Sa 16:3 And call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will shew thee what thou shalt do: and thou shalt anoint unto me [him] whom I name unto thee.<\/p>\n Ver. 3. And call Jesse to the sacrifice.<\/strong> ] Who was grandchild to Ruth the Moabitess, Rth 4:22 now grown a great lady in Bethlehem, great-grandmother to the king of Israel. So little is there lost by adhering to God and his people.<\/p>\n call Jesse: 1Sa 9:12, 1Sa 9:13, 2Sa 15:11, Mat 22:1-4 <\/p>\n and I will show: Exo 4:15, Act 9:6 <\/p>\n anoint: 1Sa 16:12, 1Sa 16:13, 1Sa 9:16, Deu 17:14 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: 1Ki 1:34 – Zadok 1Ch 12:23 – according Eze 39:17 – Speak<\/p>\n 1Sa 16:3-4. Call Jesse to the sacrifice To the feast upon the sacrifice, to which they might invite their neighbours and friends. The elders trembled at his coming Because it was strange and unexpected to them, this being but an obscure town, and remote from Samuel, and therefore they justly thought there was some extraordinary reason for it. They might fear lest he came to denounce some judgment against them, or to shun Sauls displeasure, in which case it might have been dangerous for them to entertain him. Peaceably The Hebrew phrase, Comest thou in peace? was as much as to say, (in our phrase,) Is all well?<\/p>\n And call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show thee what thou shalt do: and thou shalt anoint unto me [him] whom I name unto thee.
