1 Reyes 1:3 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 1:3

So they sought for a fair damsel throughout all the coasts of
Israel
Not only a damsel, but a beautiful one, that she might be the more acceptable to the king; who otherwise, if deformed and ugly, would not have endured her in his sight, or received at her hands, and much less suffered her to lie in his bosom:

and found Abishag a Shunammite;
a native of the city Shunem, a city in the tribe of Issachar, ( Joshua 19:18 ) ;

and brought her to the king;
for his approbation of her, and to make her his concubine wife, as he did.

1 Reyes 1:3 In-Context

1 El rey David era ya viejo, entrado en días, y lo cubrían de ropas pero no entraba en calor.
2 Entonces sus siervos le dijeron: Que se busque para mi señor el rey una doncella para que atienda al rey y sea quien lo cuide; que ella se acueste en tu seno y entrará en calor mi señor el rey.
3 Se buscó a una joven hermosa por toda la tierra de Israel, y hallaron a Abisag sunamita y la trajeron al rey.
4 La joven era muy hermosa; ella cuidaba al rey y le servía, pero el rey no la conoció.
5 Entretanto Adonías, hijo de Haguit, se ensalzaba diciendo: Yo seré rey. Y preparó para sí carros y hombres de a caballo y cincuenta hombres que corrieran delante de él.
