1 Samuel 18:9 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 18:9

And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.
] Instead of looking pleasantly, and with a smile, upon him, as a courtier and favourite, he was justly entitled to by his gallant behaviour, he looked at him with a sour, ill natured look; he looked at him with an evil, spiteful, malicious, and envious eye; or he diligently watched and observed all his motions and actions, whether they tended to disloyalty and treason, to dethrone him, and take the kingdom to himself, which he was suspicious of; he laid wait for him, as the Targum, and laid snares too, as the following history shows.

1 Samuel 18:9 In-Context

7 y exclamaban con gran regocijo:芦Sa煤l mat贸 a sus miles,隆pero David, a sus diez miles!禄
8 Disgustado por lo que dec铆an, Sa煤l se enfureci贸 y protest贸: 芦A David le dan cr茅dito por diez miles, pero a m铆 por miles. 隆Lo 煤nico que falta es que le den el reino!禄
9 Y a partir de esa ocasi贸n, Sa煤l empez贸 a mirar a David con recelo.
10 Al d铆a siguiente, el esp铆ritu maligno de parte de Dios se apoder贸 de Sa煤l, quien cay贸 en trance en su propio palacio. Andaba con una lanza en la mano y, mientras David tocaba el arpa, como era su costumbre,
11 Sa煤l se la arroj贸, pensando: 芦隆A este lo clavo en la pared!禄 Dos veces lo intent贸, pero David logr贸 esquivar la lanza.
