1 Samuel 26:22 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 26:22

And David answered and said, behold the king's spear!
&c.] And which perhaps was his sceptre, and which David therefore would not keep, lest it should be thought or said that he had deprived him of an ensign of his royalty, and be interpreted as a token of his design to seize his crown and throne:

and let one of the young men come over and fetch it;
for notwithstanding the acknowledgment Saul had made of his sin and folly, David did not choose to carry the spear to him; not caring to trust him, and put himself into his hands, lest the evil spirit should return and come upon him suddenly, and alter his disposition and carriage; nor would he send any of his men with it, whose lives were dear to him, lest they should be seized as traitors, but desires one of Saul's men might be sent for it.

1 Samuel 26:22 In-Context

20 Agora, pois, não caia o meu sangue em terra fora da presença do Senhor; pois saiu o rei de Israel em busca duma pulga, como quem persegue uma perdiz nos montes.
21 Então disse Saul: Pequei; volta, meu filho Davi, pois não tornarei a fazer-te mal, porque a minha vida foi hoje preciosa aos teus olhos. Eis que procedi como um louco, e errei grandissimamente.
22 Davi então respondeu, e disse: Eis aqui a lança, ó rei! venha cá um os mancebos, e leve-a.
23 O Senhor, porém, pague a cada um a sua justiça e a sua lealdade; pois o Senhor te entregou hoje na minha mão, mas eu não quis estender a mão contra o ungido do Senhor.
24 E assim como foi a tua vida hoje preciosa aos meus olhos, seja a minha vida preciosa aos olhos do Senhor, e livre-me ele de toda a tribulação.
