Shmuel Alef 16:10 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 16:10

Again Jesse made seven of his sons pass before Samuel
Not seven more, for he had but eight sons in all with David, ( 1 Samuel 17:12 ) but four more, which with the other three made seven; three of these four are mentioned by name, Nathanael, Raddai, and Ozem, ( 1 Chronicles 2:14 1 Chronicles 2:15 ) , but the fourth we nowhere read of; perhaps he died quickly after this, was an obscure person, and of no fame and note, or might be by another woman:

and Samuel said unto Jesse, the Lord hath not chosen these;
not anyone of them.

Shmuel Alef 16:10 In-Context

8 Then Yishai called Avinadav, and made him pass before Shmuel. And he said, Neither hath Hashem chosen this.

9 Then Yishai made Shammah to pass by. And he said, Neither hath Hashem chosen this.

10 Again, Yishai made his shivat banim to pass before Shmuel. And Shmuel said unto Yishai, these Hashem hath not bachar (chosen).

11 And Shmuel said unto Yishai, Are here all thy ne’arim (boys)? And he said, There remaineth yet the katan (small, young), and, hinei, ro’eh batzon (tending the flock) is he. And Shmuel said unto Yishai, Send and get him; for we will not sit down [to eat] till he come here.

12 And he sent, and brought him in. Now he was adomoni (ruddy, of healthy red complexion) and withal of a yafeh countenance, and good-looking. And Hashem said, Arise, meshachehu (anoint him); ki zeh hu (for this is he).
