1 Samuel 24:6 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 24:6

And he said unto his men
When he returned and brought the skirt of Saul's garment in his hand; or else he said this before that, though here mentioned, when they moved it to him to dispatch him, as he had a fair opportunity of doing it:

God forbid that I should do this thing unto my master, the Lord's
anointed;
and which he could not think of but with detestation and abhorrence, since he was his sovereign lord and master, and he a subject of his, and was anointed by the order of God, and his person sacred:

to stretch forth my hand against him;
to take away his life; to cut off the skirt of his garment gave him uneasiness; but to slay him, the thought of it was shocking to him:

seeing he [is] the anointed of the Lord;
anointed by Samuel to be king, ( 1 Samuel 10:1 ) , by order of the Lord, ( 1 Samuel 9:17 ) .

1 Samuel 24:6 In-Context

4 Y los hombres de David le dijeron: Mira, este es el d铆a del que te habl贸 el SE脩OR: "He aqu铆, voy a entregar a tu enemigo en tu mano, y har谩s con 茅l como bien te parezca." Entonces David se levant贸 y cort贸 a escondidas la orilla del manto de Sa煤l.
5 Aconteci贸 despu茅s de esto que la conciencia de David le remord铆a, porque hab铆a cortado la orilla del manto de Sa煤l.
6 Y dijo a sus hombres: El SE脩OR me guarde de hacer tal cosa contra mi rey, el ungido del SE脩OR, de extender contra 茅l mi mano, porque es el ungido del SE脩OR.
7 David contuvo a sus hombres con estas palabras y no les permiti贸 que se levantaran contra Sa煤l. Y Sa煤l se levant贸, sali贸 de la cueva, y sigui贸 su camino.
8 Despu茅s de esto David se levant贸, sali贸 de la cueva y dio voces tras Sa煤l, diciendo: 隆Mi se帽or el rey! Y cuando Sa煤l mir贸 hacia atr谩s, David inclin贸 su rostro a tierra y se postr贸.
