The slaying of the lion and the bear mentioned here, must have taken place at two different times; perhaps the verse should be read thus: I went out after him<\/I>, (the lion.) and smote<\/I> him<\/I>, &c. And when he<\/I> (the bear) rose up against me, I caught him<\/I> by the beard and slew him<\/I>.<\/P><\/p>\n Smote him, <\/B>to wit, the lion, as appears by his beard; which having particularly mentioned, it was easily understood and believed, that he did the same to the bear; which therefore it was needless to express. <\/P> <\/p>\n And I went out after him<\/strong>,…. Whether a lion or a bear; but mention after being made of his beard, a lion rather is meant:<\/p>\n and smote him<\/strong>; with his fist, or rather with his shepherd’s staff:<\/p>\n and delivered [it] out of his mouth<\/strong>; snatched it out from thence, or obliged him to drop it, by beating him:<\/p>\n and when he arose against me<\/strong>; after he had let go the lamb, threatening to tear him in pieces for attempting to disturb him in his prey, and take it away from him;<\/p>\n I caught [him] by his beard<\/strong>; such as lions have; hence a lion is often called in Homer g , the well-bearded lion. Kimchi thinks the beard with the nether jaw is meant, which David caught hold on:<\/p>\n and smote him, and slew him<\/strong>; tore him to pieces, as Samson did, Jud 14:5<\/span>, or slew him with some weapon in his hand.<\/p>\n g Iliad. 17. ver. 109. & Iliad. 18. ver. 318.<\/p>\n 1Sa 17:35 And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered [it] out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught [him] by his beard, and smote him, and slew him.<\/p>\n Ver. 35.

This was an act of admirable courage in David: what could any Samson or Lysimachus have done more? Leo animalibus omnibus robore, animo et crudelitate antecellit: nec feras tantum, sed homines etiam devorat.
