Contextual Overview

40 How oft dyd they prouoke hym in the wildernes: & greeued hym in the desert? 41 They turned backe and tempted the Lorde: and prescribed boundes to the most holy [God] of Israel. 42 They thought not of his hande: in the day when he redeemed them from the enemie. 43 Howe he had wrought his miracles in Egypt: and his wonders in the fielde of Zoan. 44 For he turned into blood their riuers & fluddes: so that they might not drinke. 45 He sent amongst them all kind of flyes who dyd eate them: and frogges who destroyed them. 46 He gaue their fruites vnto the caterpiller: & their labour to the grashopper. 47 He destroyed their vines with hayle stones: and their wilde figge trees with the harde frost. 48 He smote their cattell also with haylestones: and their flockes with thunder boltes. 49 He cast vpon them the rage of his furie, anger, disdayne, and trouble: by sending foorth euill angels amongst them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

He chose David also his servant,.... To be king of Israel, the youngest of his father's family, when he rejected all the rest; see

1 Samuel 16:6, an eminent type of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is called by his name, Psalms 89:3 and the signification of his name "Beloved" agrees with him, who is beloved of God, as his Son, and as man and Mediator; and beloved of men, of all the saints: and so likewise his character as a servant suits with him; who not only frequently has the name of a servant, Psalms 89:19, but appeared in the form of one, Philippians 2:7, had the work of a servant to do, which he has accomplished, even the great work of our salvation,

John 17:4, in doing which, and all things leading on and appertaining to it, he took the utmost delight and pleasure, and used the greatest diligence and assiduity, John 4:34 and justly acquired the character of a faithful and righteous servant, Isaiah 53:11, and to this work and office he was chosen and called by his Father,

Isaiah 42:1,

and took him from the sheepfolds; from whence he was fetched when Samuel was sent by the Lord to anoint him, 1 Samuel 16:11, so Moses, while he was feeding his father's sheep, was called to be the saviour and deliverer of Israel, Exodus 3:1, and Amos was taken from following the flock to be a prophet of the Lord, Amos 7:13, and as David was a type of Christ, this may express the mean condition of our Lord, in his state of humiliation, previous to his exaltation, and the more open exercise of his kingly office.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

He chose David also his servant - He chose him that he might set him over his people as their king. The idea is, that David was selected when he had no natural pretensions to the office, as he did not pertain to a royal family, and could have no claim to such a distinction. The account of this choice is contained in 1 Samuel 15:1-30.

And took him from the sheep-folds - From the humble occupation of a shepherd. 1 Samuel 16:11; 2 Samuel 7:8.
