2 Samuel 6:23 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 6:23

Therefore Michal the daughter of Saul had no child until the
day of her death.
] The children she brought up for Adriel were not her own, but adopted ones, or Adriel's by another woman, ( 2 Samuel 21:8 ) ; however, she had none after this time, whatever she had before, and it does not appear that she had any, though the Jews say she was Eglah, and Ithream her son, (See Gill on 2 Samuel 3:5). And thus she that vilified David brought a reproach upon herself, as barrenness was always reckoned, and no one descending from her arrived to royal dignity, and sat on the throne of David; and so it was ordered in Providence, as Abarbinel observes, that the seed of David and of Saul might not be mixed.

21 David aber sprach zu Michal: Ich will vor dem HERRN spielen, der mich erwählt hat vor deinem Vater und vor allem seinem Hause, daß er mir befohlen hat, ein Fürst zu sein über das Volk des HERRN, über Israel, {~} {~}

22 Und ich will noch geringer werden denn also und will niedrig sein in meinen Augen, und mit den Mägden, von denen du geredet hast, zu Ehren kommen.
