2 Samuel 6:21
Play - See II Samuel 6:5 note. The speech might be paraphrased, Before the Lord which chose me, etc., yea, before the Lord have I danced. He humbles Michal' s pride by the allusion to her father' s rejection, and shows by Saul' s example how little pride contributes to the stability of greatness. Therefore, for his part, he will not think anything done for the glory of God too mean for him; and if he cannot have honor from Saul' s daughter, he will be content to be honored by the maid-servants.
