And Saul took him that day<\/strong>,…. Not only into his favour, and into his service, but into his court; even on that very day he slew the Philistine, or however as soon as it could be done:<\/p>\n and would let him go no more home to his father’s house<\/strong>; as he used to do before; when he only served as a musician to him, then he was only at court when Saul was in a melancholy disposition, and wanted him, and so was going and returning, and in the intervals kept his father’s sheep, 1Sa 17:15<\/span>; but now he would not suffer him to attend such business any longer, since he was not only to become a courtier, and be made a prince or noble, but to marry his daughter, according to the declaration he had made, with respect to any man that should kill Goliath.<\/p>\n 2<\/strong>. <\/strong> Saul would let him go no more home <\/strong> That is, to remain there in his former occupation. He was doubtless permitted to go and visit his father whenever he desired, but not to resume his charge of the sheep as before. 1Sa 17:15<\/span>.<\/p>\n (2) And Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father’s house. (3) Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul. (4) And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle. (5) And David went out whithersoever Saul sent him, and behaved himself wisely: and Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul’s servants.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Whatever this covenant between Jonathan and David might mean, yet it may serve to suggest to us that better covenant established upon better security, and better promises, which the Lord hath made for his people and with his people. The covenant for his people stands everlastingly and eternally secure, being founded between all the persons of the Godhead. See the outlines of it; Isa 59:21<\/span> and the covenant made with his people, see two sweet transcripts of it; Jer 32:40<\/span>Jer 32:40<\/span> . But there is another beautiful thought suggested to us in these verses, David was cloathed with Jonathan’s raiment. And did not our Jesus put on our garments, when he clothed himself in our nature? Jesus indeed stript himself of his robes of glory, when he put on the garment of mortality, and as the apostle beautifully speaks, for our sakes became poor that we through his poverty might be made rich. Precious Redeemer! what love of Jonathan is to be named with thine? 2Co 8:9<\/span> .<\/p>\n 1Sa 18:2 And Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father’s house.<\/p>\n Ver. 2. Saul took him that day.<\/strong> ] According as Samuel had foretold, 1Sa 8:11-12 and for a step to the kingdom, whereunto he was anointed, and no less assured. See Psa 63:11<\/span> .<\/p>\n took him: 1Sa 16:21-23, 1Sa 17:15 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: 1Sa 19:7 – in times past<\/p>\n 1Sa 18:2. Saul took him that day By which it appears, that, before this, David had not had his constant residence at court, after he first came thither, but went home to his father when Saul was well, and had no need of him. This confirms the remarks made on the former chapter.<\/p>\n And Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father’s house. By which it appears, that beforetime David had not his constant residence at court, but did return to his fathers house, and thence again to the court, as occasion required.
