1 Samuel 20:38 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 20:38

And Jonathan cried after the lad, make speed, haste, stay
not
But bring the arrows to him directly, that he might dismiss him; for, observing that no man was passing by, he was desirous of embracing the opportunity for a few minutes to have an interview with David alone before he fled:

and Jonathan's lad gathered up the arrows;
for though the textual reading is singular, the marginal is plural, to show, as Kimchi observes, that he cast three arrows, as he said he would, ( 1 Samuel 20:20 ) ;

and came to his master;
with them.

1 Samuel 20:38 In-Context

36 Y dijo á su mozo: Corre y busca las saetas que yo tirare. Y como el muchacho iba corriendo, él tiraba la saeta que pasara más allá de él.
37 Y llegando el muchacho adonde estaba la saeta que Jonathán había tirado, Jonathán dió voces tras el muchacho, diciendo: ¿No está la saeta más allá de ti?
38 Y tornó á gritar Jonathán tras el muchacho: Date priesa, aligera, no te pares. Y el muchacho de Jonathán cogió las saetas, y vínose á su señor.
39 Empero ninguna cosa entendió el muchacho: solamente Jonathán y David entendían el negocio.
40 Luego dió Jonathán sus armas á su muchacho, y díjole: Vete y llévalas á la ciudad.
