37 Então Saul perguntou a Deus: “Devo perseguir os filisteus? Tu os entregarás nas mãos de Israel?” Mas naquele dia Deus não lhe respondeu.

1 Samuel 14:37 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 14:37

And Saul asked counsel of God
He agreed to the motion of the high priest, and asked counsel by Urim and Thummim; the Targum is, as before,

``inquired by the Word of the Lord:''

shall I go down after the Philistines?
pursue after them in their flight to their own country, which, lying to the sea, was a descent:

wilt thou deliver them into the hand of Israel?
what remain of them, otherwise a victory over them was obtained:

but he answered him not that day;
no answer was returned by Urim and Thummim, so that he was left in suspense whether he should pursue or no; the Targum is,

``he received not his prayer that day;''

this was treating him in a righteous manner; since he would not stay for an answer from the Lord, ( 1 Samuel 14:19 ) , the Lord now will not give him any; though the principal view was, that he might take the step he did.

1 Samuel 14:37 In-Context

35 Então, Saul edificou um altar para o SENHOR; foi a primeira vez que fez isso.
36 Saul disse ainda: “Desçamos atrás dos filisteus à noite; vamos saqueá-los até o amanhecer e não deixemos vivo nem um só deles”.Eles responderam: “Faze o que achares melhor”.O sacerdote, porém, disse: “Consultemos aqui a Deus”.
37 Então Saul perguntou a Deus: “Devo perseguir os filisteus? Tu os entregarás nas mãos de Israel?” Mas naquele dia Deus não lhe respondeu.
38 Disse então Saul: “Venham cá, todos vocês que são líderes do exército, e descubramos que pecado foi cometido hoje.
39 Juro pelo nome do SENHOR, o libertador de Israel; mesmo que seja meu filho Jônatas, ele morrerá”. Mas ninguém disse uma só palavra.
