2 Samuel 1:14

14 And David said to him, “Why were you not afraid to put forth your hand, so that you would kill the Christ of the Lord?” ^{▼▼1:14The term Christ means anointed. However, it is better to translate the Latin Christum as Christ than as anointed, first, because it is closer to the Latin; second, because Saul, and David, and Solomon were each foreshadowings of Jesus the Christ; third, because using the term anointed would obscure the connection between these passages and Jesus Christ.(Conte)}
