16 Disse Samuel: “Por que você me chamou, já que o SENHOR se afastou de você e se tornou seu inimigo?

1 Samuel 28:16 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 28:16

Then said Samuel, wherefore then dost thou, ask of me
Whom thou knowest to have been a prophet of the Lord, and therefore can say nothing more or less than what comes from him, and is according to his will, if anything at all; the "devil" representing Samuel, whom Saul had called for, and reasons in such language as might be thought to be his own, though sometimes he betrays himself:

seeing the Lord is departed from thee;
as Saul himself owned: to which he adds,

and is become thine enemy;
to make his case appear still more desperate; for his whole view is to lead him to despair, which shows what sort of spirit he was: though some understand this as spoken of David, and read the words, and "he is with thine enemy" F9; is on his side, and favours his cause; so the Targum,

``and he is for the help of a man, whose enmity thou sharest in;''

or who is at enmity with thee, meaning David; but now the true Samuel would never have said this, or suggested it, that David was an enemy to Saul, for he was not.

1 Samuel 28:16 In-Context

14 Ele perguntou: “Qual a aparência dele?”E disse ela: “Um ancião que veste um manto está subindo”.Então Saul ficou sabendo que era Samuel, inclinou-se e prostrou-se com o rosto em terra.
15 Samuel perguntou a Saul: “Por que você me perturbou, fazendo-me subir?”Respondeu Saul: “Estou muito angustiado. Os filisteus estão me atacando, e Deus se afastou de mim. Ele já não responde nem por profetas, nem por sonhos; por isso te chamei para me dizeres o que fazer”.
16 Disse Samuel: “Por que você me chamou, já que o SENHOR se afastou de você e se tornou seu inimigo?
17 O SENHOR fez o que predisse por meu intermédio: rasgou de suas mãos o reino e o deu a seu próximo, a Davi.
18 Porque você não obedeceu ao SENHOR nem executou a grande ira dele contra os amalequitas, ele faz isso a você hoje.
