1 Samuel 18:29 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 18:29

And Saul was yet the more afraid of David
Because the Lord was with him, and his wife loved him; so that he feared he should never be able to accomplish his designs, and that this marriage, which he intended as the means of his ruin, would pave the way for his ascending the throne:

and Saul became David's enemy continually;
was every day giving fresh evidence of his enmity against him; before it was by fits, and at certain times, there were some intervals; but now enmity was rooted and habituated, and was constant and continually showing itself.

1 Samuel 18:29 In-Context

27 da machte sich David auf und zog mit seinen Männern und schlug unter den Philistern zweihundert Mann. Und David brachte ihre Vorhäute dem König in voller Zahl, daß er des Königs Eidam würde. Da gab ihm Saul seine Tochter Michal zum Weibe.

28 Und Saul sah und merkte, daß der HERR mit David war. Und Michal, Sauls Tochter, hatte ihn lieb.

29 Da fürchtete sich Saul noch mehr vor David und ward sein Feind sein Leben lang. {~}

30 Und da der Philister Fürsten auszogen, handelte David klüglicher denn alle Knechte Sauls, wenn sie auszogen, daß sein Name hoch gepriesen ward. {~}
