This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
1Sa_14:42 And Saul said, Cast [lots] between me and Jonathan my son. And Jonathan was taken.
Ver. 42. And Jonathan was taken.] Not in answer to Saul’s prayers, which God valued not. But, (1.) To show that he is the disposer of lots; (2.) To humble Jonathan, who was in danger of being puffed up too much with the joy of his victory; (3.) To discover Saul’s hypocrisy. {a}
{a} Peter Martyr.
