1 Reis 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 Reis 1:3 In-Context

1 Quando o rei Davi envelheceu, estando já de idade bem avançada, cobriam-no de cobertores, mas ele não se aquecia.
2 Por isso os seus servos lhe propuseram: “Vamos procurar uma jovem virgem que sirva o rei e cuide dele. Ela se deitará ao seu lado, a fim de aquecê-lo”.
3 Então procuraram em todo o território de Israel uma jovem que fosse bonita e encontraram Abisague, uma sunamita, e a levaram ao rei.
4 A jovem, muito bonita, cuidava do rei e o servia, mas o rei não teve relações com ela.
5 Ora, Adonias, cuja mãe se chamava Hagite, tomou a dianteira e disse: “Eu serei o rei”. Providenciou uma carruagem e cavalos, além de cinquenta homens para correrem à sua frente.
