This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
1Sa_16:6 And it came to pass, when they were come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely the LORD’S anointed [is] before him.
Ver. 6. He looked on Eliab.] Who was of a goodly stature and presence, but proud and uncourteous. {1Sa_17:28} Fronti nulla fides. Samuel had seen how ill Saul proved, though proper and personable.
And said, Surely, &c.] This he said by a human judgment, and not as a prophet. See the like, 2Sa_7:3.
