1 Samuel 19:9 - Forerunner Commentary

1 Samuel 19:9

7 Then Jonathan called David, and Jonathan told him all these things. So Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence ^aas in times past.

8 And there was war again; and David went out and fought with the Philistines, ^aand struck them with a mighty blow, and they fled from him.

9 Now ^athe distressing spirit from the Lord came upon Saul as he sat in his house with his spear in his hand. And David was playing music with his hand.

10 Then Saul sought to pin David to the wall with the spear, but he slipped away from Saul’s presence; and he drove the spear into the wall. So David fled and escaped that night.

11 ^aSaul also sent messengers to David’s house to watch him and to kill him in the morning. And Michal, David’s wife, told him, saying, “If you do not save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be killed.”

12 So Michal ^alet David down through a window. And he went and fled and escaped.

13 And Michal took an image and laid it in the bed, put a cover of goats’ hair for his head, and covered it with clothes.

14 So when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, “He is sick.”
