This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
1Sa_26:23 The LORD render to every man his righteousness and his faithfulness: for the LORD delivered thee into [my] hand to day, but I would not stretch forth mine hand against the LORD’S anointed.
Ver. 23. The Lord render to every man his righteousness.] Saving me from thy tender mercies, for they are cruelties, and from thy fair promises, for there is no trusting to them.
But I would not stretch forth mine hand.] Here is his holy gloriation: for as every flower hath its sweet smell, so hath every good action its comfort and refreshing; but especially when we withstand a strong temptation, as here.
