1 Samuel 16:1

Berfirmanlah TUHAN kepada Samuel: "Berapa lama lagi engkau berdukacita karena Saul? Bukankah ia telah Kutolak sebagai raja atas Israel? Isilah tabung tandukmu dengan minyak dan pergilah. Aku mengutus engkau kepada Isai, orang Betlehem itu, sebab di antara anak-anaknya telah Kupilih seorang raja bagi-Ku."

Alkitab Terjemahan Lama
Sebermula, maka berfirmanlah Tuhan kepada Semuel demikian: Berapa lamakah engkau bercintakan Saul, yang sudah Kubuang juga, supaya jangan lagi ia raja atas orang Israel? Isilah olehmu akan tandukmu dengan minyak yang harum, lalu pergilah, maka Aku hendak menyuruhkan dikau kepada Isai, orang Betlehem itu, karena Aku sudah melihat di antara segala anaknya laki-laki akan seorang raja bagi-Ku.

Contextual Overview

1 The Lorde sayd vnto Samuel: Howe long wilt thou mourne for Saul, seing I haue cast him away from raigning ouer Israel? Fill thyne horne with oyntment, and come, that I may send thee to Isai the Bethlemite: for I haue prouided me a king among his sonnes. 2 And Samuel sayd: How can I go? For if Saul heare it, he will kill me. The Lord aunswered: Take an heyfer with thee, and saye: I am come to offer to the Lorde. 3 And call Isai to the offering, and I will shewe thee what thou shalt do: And thou shalt annoynt vnto me him whom I name vnto thee. 4 And so Samuel did as the Lord bade him, and came to Bethlehem: and the elders of the towne were astonyed at his comming, and saide: Commest thou peaceably? 5 He aunswered: Yea, I am come to offer vnto the Lorde: Sanctifie your selues, and come with me to the offering. And he sanctified Isai and his sonnes, and bade them to the offering.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the Lord said unto Samuel,.... In a vision or dream, or by an articulate voice: how long wilt thou mourn for Saul? he does not blame him for mourning, but for mourning so long; but how long that was cannot be said; and though his affection for him might cause him to indulge to it, yet it was in vain, seeing the sentence was irreversible:

seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? that is, his posterity; for he himself reigned as long as he lived, though in a very inglorious manner:

fill thine horn with oil; with common oil; for that this was the holy anointing oil kept in the tabernacle, as the Jewish writers generally suppose, with which they say David and Solomon, and the kings of Judah, were anointed, there is no reason to believe; since the tabernacle, where this oil was, was at a distance from Samuel, and which seems to have been only for the anointing of the priests. This was not a phial he was bid to take, as when he anointed Saul; but an horn, denoting the abundance of gifts bestowed on David, and the firmness and duration of his kingdom:

and go, and I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite; the son of Obed, whom Boaz begat of Ruth the Moabitess, Ruth 4:21

for I have provided me a king among his sons; but which he says not; this was reserved for an later discovery; however God had in his own mind picked him, whom he would hereafter make known; this was a king for himself, raised up to fulfil his will; Saul was chosen by him, but then it was at the request of the people, and so he was rather their king than his; but this was not at their desire, nor with their knowledge, but of his own good will and pleasure; the one was given in wrath, and the other in love; the one was to the rejection of God as King, the other to the rejection of Saul by the will of God.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XVI

Samuel is sent from Ramah to Bethlehem, to anoint David, 1-13.

The Spirit of the Lord departs from Saul, and an evil spirit

comes upon him, 14.

His servants exhort him to get a skilful harper to play before

him, 15, 16.

He is pleased with the counsel, and desires them to find such a

person, 17.

They recommend David, 18.

He is sent for, comes, plays before Saul, and finds favour in

his sight, 19-23.

NOTES ON CHAP. XVI

Verse 1 Samuel 16:1. Fill thine horn with oilHorns appear to have been the ancient drinking vessels of all nations; and we may suppose that most persons who had to travel much, always carried one with them, for the purpose of taking up water from the fountains to quench their thirst. Such a horn had Samuel; and on this occasion he was commanded to fill it with oil, for the purpose of consecrating a king over Israel from among the sons of Jesse.
