Shmuel Alef 25:32 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 25:32

And David said to Abigail
Having heard her out, and being overcome with her rhetoric and powerful arguments:

blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel, which sent thee this day to meet
me;
who put it into her heart to come out and meet him, and endeavour to avert him from his bad design, which his heart was set upon; he saw plainly the hand of God in it, and in the first place acknowledges the goodness of divine Providence, in directing her to take the step she did.

Shmuel Alef 25:32 In-Context

30 And it shall come to pass, when Hashem shall have done to adoni according to all the tovah that He hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have appointed thee Nagid over Yisroel,
31 There shall be no grief unto thee, nor michshol lev (downfall of conscience) unto adoni, either that thou hast committed shefach dahm chinom, or that adoni hath avenged himself; but when Hashem shall have dealt well with adoni, then remember thine handmaid.
32 And Dovid said to Avigal, Baruch Hashem Elohei Yisroel, Who sent thee today to meet me;
33 And baruch be thy good sense, and berukhah be thou, who hast kept me this yom from coming to shed blood, and from avenging myself with mine own yad.
34 For in very deed, as Hashem Elohei Yisroel liveth, Who hath kept me back from hurting thee, except thou hadst hasted and come to meet me, surely there had not been left unto Naval by ohr haboker any that urinates against the wall.
