1 Samuel 25:41 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 25:41

And she arose, and bowed herself on [her] face to the earth,
&c.] As she did before David, ( 1 Samuel 25:23 ) ; and did as she would have done had he been present, considering his messengers as representing him and therefore showed the same respect and reverence and did the same honour, as if he had been there in person: and said;
expressed herself in such language as if David had been before her: behold, [let] thine handmaid [be] a servant to wash the feet of the
servants of my lord;
which she said through her great humility, this being one of the meanest services she could be put to; intimating, that she was so far from being worthy to be the wife of such a man that she was only fit and it would be honour enough to her to perform the meanest services to those that waited upon him; or her sense is that it would be enough for her to be the wife of one of David's servants, and not his; it being the business of a wife, as Ben Gersom observes to wash the feet of her husband.

1 Samuel 25:41 In-Context

39 David se casa con Abigail
Cuando David oy贸 que Nabal hab铆a muerto, dijo: 芦Alabado sea el Se帽or
, que veng贸 el insulto que recib铆 de Nabal y me impidi贸 que tomara venganza por m铆 mismo. Nabal recibi贸 el castigo por su pecado禄. Despu茅s David envi贸 mensajeros a Abigail pidi茅ndole que fuera su esposa.
40 Cuando los mensajeros llegaron a Carmelo, le dijeron a Abigail:
鈥擠avid nos ha enviado para que la llevemos a fin de que se case con 茅l.
41 Entonces ella se inclin贸 al suelo y respondi贸:
鈥擸o, su sierva, estar铆a encantada de casarme con David. 隆Aun estar铆a dispuesta a ser una esclava y lavar los pies de sus siervos!
42 As铆 que enseguida se prepar贸, llev贸 a cinco de sus siervas como asistentes, se mont贸 en su burro, y fue con los mensajeros de David. Y se convirti贸 en su esposa.
43 David tambi茅n se cas贸 con Ahinoam de Jezreel, as铆 que las dos fueron sus esposas.
