1 Samuel 16:22 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 16:22

And Saul sent to Jesse, saying, let David, I pray thee, stand
before me
Continue in his service; which was great condescension in him, and great respect shown to Jesse, not to detain his son without his leave, and to ask it as a favour of him:

for he hath found favour in my sight:
was very acceptable to him which must be very pleasing to Jesse to hear; especially if he was in any fear that Saul had an ill design upon him, when he first sent for him.

1 Samuel 16:22 In-Context

20 Jessé, pois, tomou um jumento carregado de pão, e um odre de vinho, e um cabrito, e os enviou a Saul pela mão de Davi, seu filho.
21 Assim Davi veio e se apresentou a Saul, que se agradou muito dele e o fez seu escudeiro.
22 Então Saul mandou dizer a Jessé: Deixa ficar Davi ao meu serviço, pois achou graça aos meus olhos.
23 E quando o espírito maligno da parte de Deus vinha sobre Saul, Davi tomava a harpa, e a tocava com a sua mão; então Saul sentia alívio, e se achava melhor, e o espírito maligno se retirava dele.
