1 Samuel 25:30 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 25:30

And it shall come to pass, when the Lord shall have done to my
lord according to all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee,
&c.] Performed his promise, especially with respect to his kingdom, as follows:

and shall have appointed thee ruler over Israel;
that is, actually raised him to be, and settled him as king upon the throne of Israel; for he was both appointed and anointed already; and this Abigail knew, and was now well known in Israel, and the common talk of the people.

1 Samuel 25:30 In-Context

28 "Forgive my presumption! But God is at work in my master, developing a rule solid and dependable. My master fights God's battles! As long as you live no evil will stick to you.
29 If anyone stands in your way, if anyone tries to get you out of the way, Know this: Your God-honored life is tightly bound in the bundle of God-protected life; But the lives of your enemies will be hurled aside as a stone is thrown from a sling.
30 "When God completes all the goodness he has promised my master and sets you up as prince over Israel,
31 my master will not have this dead weight in his heart, the guilt of an avenging murder. And when God has worked things for good for my master, remember me."
32 And David said, "Blessed be God, the God of Israel. He sent you to meet me!
