1 Samuel 14:21-31

Listen to 1 Samuel 14:21-31
21 Y los Hebreos que hab铆an estado con los Filisteos de tiempo antes, y hab铆an venido con ellos de los alrededores al campo, tambi茅n 茅stos se volvieron para ser con los Israelitas que estaban con Sa煤l y con Jonath谩n.
22 Asimismo todos los Israelitas que se hab铆an escondido en el monte de Ephraim, oyendo que los Filisteos hu铆an, ellos tambi茅n los persiguieron en aquella batalla.
23 As铆 salv贸 Jehov谩 谩 Israel aquel d铆a. Y lleg贸 el alcance hasta Beth-aven.
24 Pero los hombres de Israel fueron puestos en apuro aquel d铆a; porque Sa煤l hab铆a conjurado al pueblo, diciendo: Cualquiera que comiere pan hasta la tarde, hasta que haya tomado venganza de mis enemigos, sea maldito. Y todo el pueblo no hab铆a gustado pan.
25 Y todo el pueblo del pa铆s lleg贸 谩 un bosque donde hab铆a miel en la superficie del campo.
26 Entr贸 pues el pueblo en el bosque, y he aqu铆 que la miel corr铆a; mas ninguno hubo que llegase la mano 谩 su boca: porque el pueblo tem铆a el juramento.
27 Empero Jonath谩n no hab铆a o铆do cuando su padre conjur贸 al pueblo, y alarg贸 la punta de una vara que tra铆a en su mano, y moj贸la en un panal de miel, y lleg贸 su mano 谩 su boca; y sus ojos fueron aclarados.
28 Entonces habl贸 uno del pueblo, diciendo: Tu padre ha conjurado expresamente al pueblo, diciendo: Maldito sea el hombre que comiere hoy manjar. Y el pueblo desfallec铆a.
29 Y respondi贸 Jonath谩n: Mi padre ha turbado el pa铆s. Ved ahora c贸mo han sido aclarados mis ojos, por haber gustado un poco de esta miel:
30 驴Cu谩nto m谩s si el pueblo hubiera hoy comido del despojo de sus enemigos que hall贸? 驴no se habr铆a hecho ahora mayor estrago en los Filisteos?
31 E hirieron aquel d铆a 谩 los Filisteos desde Michmas hasta Ajal贸n: mas el pueblo se cans贸 mucho.

1 Samuel 14:21-31 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO FIRST SAMUEL 14

This chapter gives an account of an adventure of Jonathan and his armourbearer smiting a garrison of the Philistines, 1Sa 14:1-14, which with other circumstances struck terror into the whole army; which being observed by Saul's spies, he and his men went out against them, and being joined by others, pursued them, and obtained a complete victory, 1Sa 14:15-23, but what sullied the glory of the day was a rash oath of Saul's, adjuring the people not to eat any food till evening which Jonathan not hearing of ignorantly broke, 1Sa 14:24-31 and which long fasting made the people so ravenous, that they slew their cattle, and ate them with the blood, contrary to the law of God, for which they were reproved by Saul, 1Sa 14:32-34, upon which he built an altar, and inquired of the Lord whether he should pursue the Philistines all that night till morning, but had no answer; which made him conclude sin was committed, and which he inquired after, declaring that if it was his own son Jonathan that had committed it he should surely die, 1Sa 14:35-39, the people being silent, he cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonathan; who had it not been for the resolution of the people that rescued him out of his hands, because of the great salvation he had wrought, must have died, 1Sa 14:40-46 and the chapter is cited with an account of Saul's battles with the neighbouring nations in general, and of his family, 1Sa 14:47-52.
