Cross-References
But one night God spoke to Abimelech in a dream and said, "You will die. The woman you took is married."
Abraham himself told me, ‘This woman is my sister,' and she also said, ‘He is my brother.' I am innocent. I did not know I was doing anything wrong."
Then God said to Abimelech in the dream, "Yes, I know you did not realize what you were doing. So I did not allow you to sin against me and touch her.
So early the next morning, Abimelech called all his officers and told them everything that had happened in the dream. They were very afraid.
Then Abimelech called Abraham to him and said, "What have you done to us? What wrong did I do against you? Why did you bring this trouble to my kingdom? You should not have done these things to me.
and asked the servant, "Who is that man walking in the field to meet us?" The servant answered, "That is my master." So Rebekah covered her face with her veil.
So Abimelech warned everyone, "Anyone who touches this man or his wife will be put to death."
Anyone who loves learning accepts correction, but a person who hates being corrected is stupid.
A wise warning to someone who will listen is as valuable as gold earrings or fine gold jewelry.
It is better to correct someone openly than to have love and not show it.
Gill's Notes on the Bible
So Jonathan made [a covenant] with the house of David,.... Not with David himself only, which was now renewed, but with his family also:
[saying], let the Lord even require [it] at the hand of David's enemies; take vengeance on Jonathan, or on any of his posterity, should they break this covenant, by showing themselves enemies to David, and his crown; and, on the other hand, also on David, and his posterity, should they not show kindness to Jonathan and his seed, according to the tenor of this covenant.
