16 Y Jonatán, hijo de Saúl, se levantó y fue a donde estaba David en Hores, y le fortaleció en Dios.

1 Samuel 23:16 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 23:16

And Jonathan, Saul's son, arose
And came from Gibeah, which, according to Bunting F15, was twenty two miles from the place where David was:

and went to David into the wood:
having had intelligence where he was, this being a proper place to have an interview with him privately:

and strengthened his hand in God;
and his heart too, his hand of faith to lay hold on God, as his covenant God and lean and rely upon him; he strengthened him in his power and in his providence, and in his promises to him; the Targum is,

``he strengthened him in the Word of the Lord;''

not only in his word and promise, but in Christ the essential Word of God, who should spring from him according to the flesh.

1 Samuel 23:16 In-Context

14 David se quedó en el desierto en los refugios, y permaneció en la región montañosa en el desierto de Zif. Saúl lo buscaba todos los días, pero Dios no lo entregó en su mano
15 Y se dio cuenta David que Saúl había salido para quitarle la vida; y David se encontraba en el desierto de Zif, en Hores.
16 Y Jonatán, hijo de Saúl, se levantó y fue a donde estaba David en Hores, y le fortaleció en Dios.
17 Y le dijo: No temas, porque la mano de Saúl mi padre no te encontrará, y tú reinarás sobre Israel y yo seré segundo después de ti; Saúl mi padre también sabe esto.
18 Hicieron los dos un pacto delante del SEÑOR; y David permaneció en Hores mientras Jonatán se fue a su casa.
