Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown
Jonathan said to David, Go in peace—The interview being a stolen one, and every moment precious, it was kindness in Jonathan to hasten his friend's departure.
JONATHAN AND DAVID LOVINGLY PART. (I Samuel 20:41-42)
David . . . fell on his face to the ground, and bowed three times—a token of homage to the prince's rank; but on a close approach, every other consideration was sunk in the full flow of the purest brotherly affection.
