1 Kings 1:26

26 me servum tuum et Sadoc sacerdotem et Banaiam filium Ioiadae et Salomonem famulum tuum non vocavit

1 Kings 1:26 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 1:26

But me, [even] me thy servant
Meaning himself, Nathan the prophet, who was David's servant, his seer, and counsellor:

and Zadok the priest;
for whom David had a great respect:

and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada;
who was captain of his bodyguards; here Nathan observes more than Bathsheba had, and supplies what she had omitted, and so filled up her words, as in ( 1 Kings 1:14 ) ;

and thy servant Solomon, hath he not called;
which showed his ill intention.

1 Kings 1:26 In-Context

24 dixit Nathan domine mi rex tu dixisti Adonias regnet post me et ipse sedeat super thronum meum

25 quia descendit hodie et immolavit boves et pinguia et arietes plurimos et vocavit universos filios regis et principes exercitus Abiathar quoque sacerdotem illisque vescentibus et bibentibus coram eo et dicentibus vivat rex Adonias

26 me servum tuum et Sadoc sacerdotem et Banaiam filium Ioiadae et Salomonem famulum tuum non vocavit

27 numquid a domino meo rege exivit hoc verbum et mihi non indicasti servo tuo qui sessurus esset super thronum domini mei regis post eum

28 et respondit rex David dicens vocate ad me Bethsabee quae cum fuisset ingressa coram rege et stetisset ante eum
