Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(11) And said unto him.--Samuel has the pleonastic, "And told him, and said," &c.The following curse from the Annals of Tiglath Pileser I. (circ. 1120 B.C.) well illustrates the three penalties proposed by God to David: "May Assur and Anum, the great gods my lords, mightily rebuke him and curse him with grievous curse . . . The overthrow of his army may they work! In presence of his foes may they make him dwell altogether! May Rimaron with evil pestilence his land cut off! Want of crops, famine, corpses, to his country may be cast!"Thus saith the Lord, Choose thee.--Not in Samuel, which has instead a direct question: "Shall there come to thee seven years' famine in thy land?" Our "choose" (take) is a word of later use in Hebrew. The Syriac gives the same term (qabbel).Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewSo Gadגָ֖ד (ḡāḏ)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 1410: Gad -- a son of Jacob, also his tribe and its territory, also a prophetwentוַיָּ֥בֹא (way·yā·ḇō)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 935: To come in, come, go in, goand saidוַיֹּ֥אמֶר (way·yō·mer)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 559: To utter, saytoאֶל־ (’el-)PrepositionStrong's 413: Near, with, among, toDavid,דָּוִ֑יד (dā·wîḏ)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 1732: David -- perhaps 'beloved one', a son of Jesse“This is whatכֹּֽה־ (kōh-)AdverbStrong's 3541: Like this, thus, here, nowthe LORDיְהוָ֖ה (Yah·weh)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 3068: LORD -- the proper name of the God of Israelsays:אָמַ֥ר (’ā·mar)Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 559: To utter, say‘Take your choiceקַבֶּל־ (qab·bel-)Verb - Piel - Imperative - masculine singularStrong's 6901: To receive, takeJump to PreviousChoice Choose David Gad Whichever Wilt
