This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
1Sa_12:7 Now therefore stand still, that I may reason with you before the LORD of all the righteous acts of the LORD, which he did to you and to your fathers.
Ver. 7. Now therefore stand still.] Bustle not, bristle not, but suffer the words of reproof and admonition. A proud person would have replied, Who can stand still to have his eyes picked out? A headstrong horse casteth his rider, and riseth up against him.
That I may reason with you.] Or, Contend with you in judgment. Sweetly said Epictetus, A faithful and prudent reprover is a Mercury, or messenger sent from God, to reduce a man to better practice.
