1 Samuel 20:2
By no means <02486> [God forbid.]
father ........ making ... aware ....... father <01540 01> [shew it me. Heb. uncover mine ear.]
1 Samuel 21:2
king <04428> [The king.]
The whole of this is a gross falsehood; and which was attended with the most fatal consequences. It is well known that from all antiquity it was held no crime to tell a lie in order to save life. Thus Diphilon [Hypo lambano to pseudas epi sotevea legomenon, ouden peripoieisthai duscheres.] "I hold it right to tell a lie for safety: nothing should be avoided to save life." A heathen may say or sing thus: but no Christian can act thus and save his soul, though he may save his life.
1 Samuel 24:6
keep me far away from <03068 02486> [the Lord forbid.]
1 Samuel 26:16
[worthy to die. Heb. the sons of death.]
Lord ............ Lord's <03068> [Lord's.]
1 Samuel 28:18
obey <08085> [obeyedst.]
Lord .............. Lord <03068> [hath the Lord.]
