Contextual Overview

¹⁷ And Dauid mourned with this lamentation ouer Saul and ouer Ionathan his sonne, ¹⁸ (Also he bad them teache the children of Iuda the vse of the bowe: And beholde, it is written in the booke of the righteous:) ¹⁹ O noble Israel, he is slaine vpon thy hie places: howe are the mightie ouerthrowen? ²⁰ Tell it not in Gath, nor publishe it in the streates of Askalon: lest the daughters of the Philistines reioyce, and lest the daughters of the vncircumcised triumph. ²¹ Ye mountaynes of Gilboa, vpon you be neither deawe nor raine, nor fieldes of offeringes: For there the shield of the mightie is cast downe, the shielde of Saul, as though he had not ben annoynted with oyle. ²² The bowe of Ionathan neuer turned backe, neither did the sword of Saul returne emptie fro the blood of the slayne, and from the fat of the mightie. ²³ Saul and Ionathan were louely and pleasaunt in their lyues, and in their deathes they were not deuided: They were swyfter then Egles, and stronger then Lions. ²⁴ Ye daughters of Israel weepe ouer Saul, which clothed you in scarlet with pleasures, and hanged ornamentes of golde vpon your apparell. ²⁵ Howe were the mightie slayne in the middest of the battel?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Saul and Jonathan [were] lovely and pleasant in their lives,.... To one another, had no quarrel or difference with each other, only on the account of David; otherwise they agreed together in the court, and in the camp, in their councils, and in their conduct:

and in their death they were not divided; neither from the people, nor from one another; Jonathan stuck close by his father to the last; which is observed to clear him from any imputation of conspiracy against him:

they were swifter than eagles; in the quick dispatch of business, in hasting to the relief of the distressed, as Saul to the men of Jabeshgilead, and in the pursuit of their enemies, as of the Philistines, more than once:

they were stronger than lions; fighting with their enemies, who became an case prey to them; and what is stronger than a lion among beasts?

Judges 14:18; or swifter than an eagle among birds, which is said to cut the air with its wings x?
