1 Reyes 1:3 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 1:3

So they sought for a fair damsel throughout all the coasts of
Israel
Not only a damsel, but a beautiful one, that she might be the more acceptable to the king; who otherwise, if deformed and ugly, would not have endured her in his sight, or received at her hands, and much less suffered her to lie in his bosom:

and found Abishag a Shunammite;
a native of the city Shunem, a city in the tribe of Issachar, ( Joshua 19:18 ) ;

and brought her to the king;
for his approbation of her, and to make her his concubine wife, as he did.

1 Reyes 1:3 In-Context

1 El rey David era ya tan anciano y tan entrado en años que, por más que lo abrigaban, no conseguía entrar en calor.
2 Por eso sus servidores le dijeron: «Busquemos a una joven soltera para que atienda a Su Majestad y lo cuide, y se acueste a su lado para darle calor».
3 Así que fueron por todo Israel en busca de una muchacha hermosa, y encontraron a una sunamita llamada Abisag y se la llevaron al rey.
4 La muchacha era realmente muy hermosa, y se dedicó a cuidar y a servir al rey, aunque el rey nunca tuvo relaciones sexuales con ella.
5 Adonías, cuya madre fue Jaguit, se llenó de ambición y dijo: «¡Yo voy a ser rey!» Por lo tanto, consiguió carros de combate, caballos y cincuenta guardias de escolta.
