1 Samuel 18:20-30
18:22 a really likes you: The same Hebrew word describes Jonathan’s love for David (18:3 b; 19:1-2 c, “strong affection”). Here, it was completely untrue.18:23 d The future son-in-law would give the bride price as a gift to his bride’s father (see Gen 34:12 e; Exod 22:16-17 f).
18:29 g even more afraid: Saul’s fear was unfounded. Although he made himself David’s enemy, David consistently honored Saul as king (see chs 24 h, 26 i).
