1 Samuel 14:43 - Forerunner Commentary

1 Samuel 14:43

41 Therefore Saul said to the Lord God of Israel, ^a“Give a perfect lot.” ^bSo Saul and Jonathan were taken, but the people escaped.

42 And Saul said, “Cast lots between my son Jonathan and me.” So Jonathan was taken.

43 Then Saul said to Jonathan, ^a“Tell me what you have done.” And Jonathan told him, and said, ^b“I only tasted a little honey with the end of the rod that was in my hand. So now I must die!”

44 Saul answered, ^a“God do so and more also; ^bfor you shall surely die, Jonathan.”

45 But the people said to Saul, “Shall Jonathan die, who has accomplished this great deliverance in Israel? Certainly not! ^aAs the Lord lives, not one hair of his head shall fall to the ground, for he has worked ^bwith God this day.” So the people rescued Jonathan, and he did not die.
