Bible Commentary for 1 Samuel 22:12

Wesley's Notes for 1 Samuel 22:12


22:10 He enquired - David chargeth him with the sin of lying, #Psal 52:3|, and it is not improbable, that he told many lies not here expressed; and withal, he was guilty of concealing part of the truth, which in this case he was obliged to declare for Ahimelech's just defence, namely, the artifice whereby David circumvented Ahimelech: making him believe, that he was then going upon the king's business, so that the service he did to David, was designed in honour to Saul.

22:11 The priests - Of the house of Eli, which God had threatened to cut off, chap.#2:31|.

22:14 And said - He doth not determine the difference between Saul and David; nor affirm what David now was: but only declared what David formerly had been, and what he was still, for anything he knew to the contrary.
