1 Samuel 17:36 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 17:36

Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear
At different times, and several of them at one time or another; whenever any of them came into the flock, he used to lay hold on them and kill them, with all the ease imaginable. The Jews suppose this phrase denotes many of them F8.

And this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them;
as he was like them in nature, savage, cruel and unclean, so he would be in his end, killed as they; of this David was fully persuaded and assured in mind having an impulse from the Spirit of God, by which he was certified of it:

seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God;
so that as he justly deserved to die, he made no doubt of it it would be his case.

1 Samuel 17:36 In-Context

34 Y David respondi贸 a Sa煤l: Tu siervo era pastor en las ovejas de su padre, y ven铆a un le贸n, o un oso, y tomaba alg煤n cordero de la manada,
35 y sal铆a yo tras 茅l, y lo her铆a, y le libraba de su boca; y si se levantaba contra m铆, yo le echaba mano de la quijada, y lo her铆a y mataba.
36 Fuese le贸n, fuese oso, tu siervo lo mataba; pues este filisteo incircunciso ser谩 como uno de ellos, porque ha deshonrado al ej茅rcito del Dios viviente.
37 Y a帽adi贸 David: el SE脩OR que me ha librado de las garras del le贸n y de las garras del oso, 茅l tambi茅n me librar谩 de la mano de este filisteo. Y dijo Sa煤l a David: Ve, y el SE脩OR sea contigo.
38 Y Sa煤l visti贸 a David de sus ropas, y puso sobre su cabeza un almete de acero, y le arm贸 de coraza.
