1 Samuel 13:14

Context
13:14 But now your kingdom will not continue! The Lord has sought out 1  for himself a man who is loyal to him 2  and the Lord has appointed 3  him to be leader over his people, for you have not obeyed what the Lord commanded you.”

1 Samuel 24:6

Context
24:6 He said to his men, “May the Lord keep me far away from doing such a thing to my lord, who is the Lord’s chosen one, 4  by extending my hand against him. After all, 5  he is the Lord’s chosen one.” 6

[13:14]  1 tn This verb form, as well as the one that follows (“appointed”), indicates completed action from the standpoint of the speaker. This does not necessarily mean that the Lord had already conducted his search and made his choice, however. The forms may be used for rhetorical effect to emphasize the certainty of the action. The divine search for a new king is as good as done, emphasizing that the days of Saul’s dynasty are numbered.

[13:14]  2 tn Heb “according to his heart.” The idiomatic expression means to be like-minded with another, as its use in 1 Sam 14:7 indicates.

[13:14]  3 tn Heb “commanded.”

[24:6]  4 tn Heb “anointed.”

[24:6]  5 tn Or “for.”

[24:6]  6 tn Heb “anointed.”
