1 Samuel 20:34 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 20:34

So Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger
Resenting his father's attempt to smite him, and his resolution to slay David:

and did eat no meat the second day of the month;
not then at that meal he was just sat down to, nor at another time that day, his stomach was so full through indignation at his father, and grief for his friend David; and besides, being a mourner on the above accounts, he might not eat of the sacrifices:

for he was grieved for David;
that his death should be determined upon by his father, and he in so much danger of it; as also that he himself must be parted from and lose so dear a friend, which was one reason he ate no meat that day: and another follows,

because his father had done him shame;
the copulative "and" being wanting; and this he did by calling him a perverse and rebellious son, and representing him as an arrant fool, and particularly by casting a javelin at him to smite him.

1 Samuel 20:34 In-Context

32 —¿Pero por qué tiene que morir? —le preguntó Jonatán a su padre—. ¿Qué ha hecho?

33 Entonces Saúl le arrojó su lanza a Jonatán con la intención de matarlo. Por fin Jonatán se dio cuenta de que su padre realmente había decidido matar a David.

34 Así que Jonatán dejó la mesa enfurecido y se negó a comer durante ese segundo día del festival, porque estaba destrozado por la vergonzosa conducta de su padre hacia David.

35 A la mañana siguiente, como habían acordado, Jonatán salió al campo acompañado por un muchachito para que le recogiera las flechas.

36 «Comienza a correr —le dijo al niño— para que puedas encontrar las flechas mientras las voy disparando». Entonces el niño corrió y Jonatán disparó una flecha más allá de donde estaba el muchacho.
