1 Samuel 23:11

Listen to 1 Samuel 23:11
11 ¿Me traicionarán los líderes de Keila y me entregarán a él?
¿Y de verdad vendrá Saúl, como me han informado? Oh Señor
, Dios de Israel, te ruego que me digas.
Y el Señor
le dijo:
—Él vendrá.

1 Samuel 23:11 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 23:11

Will the men of Keilah deliver me up into his hands? will
Saul come down, as thy servant hath heard?
&c.] That is, if David continued there, which is the supposition all proceeds upon. The questions are not orderly put, as may easily be observed, the last should have been first; which shows some perturbation of mind David was in upon hearing the design of Saul against him:

O Lord God of Israel, I beseech thee, tell thy servant;
give an answer by Urim and Thummim, as he did:

and the Lord said, he will come down;
if David abode there; that was in his thoughts, in his purpose and design, which the Lord, being omniscient, full well knew, who knows all future contingencies: hence the Jews F14 gather, that two things are not to be asked together; and if they are asked, only answer is made to one, and the answer is only made to that which it was proper to ask first; and that which is asked out of order should be asked again, which was the case here, as follows.

1 Samuel 23:11 In-Context

9 Pero David se enteró de los planes de Saúl y le dijo a Abiatar el sacerdote que trajera el efod para consultar con el Señor
.
10 Entonces David oró:
—Oh Señor
, Dios de Israel, he oído que Saúl piensa venir a Keila y destruirla porque yo estoy aquí.
11 ¿Me traicionarán los líderes de Keila y me entregarán a él?
¿Y de verdad vendrá Saúl, como me han informado? Oh Señor
, Dios de Israel, te ruego que me digas.
Y el Señor
le dijo:
—Él vendrá.
12 De nuevo David preguntó:
—¿Me traicionarán los líderes de Keila a mí y a mis hombres para entregarnos a Saúl?
Y el Señor
le contestó:
—Sí, ellos los traicionarán.
13 David se esconde en el desierto
Entonces David y sus hombres —ahora cerca de seiscientos— salieron de Keila y comenzaron a deambular por toda la región. Pronto llegó la noticia a Saúl de que David había escapado, por lo que decidió no ir a Keila.
