1 Samuel 12:13 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 12:13

Now therefore behold the king whom ye have chosen, and whom ye
have desired
For though God chose their king for them, it was at their request; they chose to have a king, and desired one, and they approved of and consented to, and confirmed the choice he had made, and so it was in effect their own:

and, behold, the Lord hath set a king over you;
he gratified them in their desires; though he did not suffer them to make themselves a king, he suffered them to have one, and he gave them one; this power he reserved to himself of setting up and pulling down kings at his pleasure.

1 Samuel 12:13 In-Context

11 Então o Senhor enviou Jerubaal, e Baraque, e Jefté, e Samuel; e vos livrou da mão de vossos inimigos em redor, e habitastes em segurança.
12 Quando vistes que Naás, rei dos filhos de Amom, vinha contra vós, dissestes-me: Não, mas reinará sobre nós um rei; entretanto, o Senhor vosso Deus era o vosso Rei.
13 Agora, eis o rei que escolhestes e que pedistes; eis que o Senhor tem posto sobre vós um rei.
14 Se temerdes ao Senhor, e o servirdes, e derdes ouvidos � sua voz, e não fordes rebeldes �s suas ordens, e se tanto vós como o rei que reina sobre vós seguirdes o Senhor vosso Deus, bem está;
15 mas se não derdes ouvidos � voz do Senhor, e fordes rebeldes �s suas ordens, a mão do Senhor será contra vós, como foi contra vossos pais:
