Saul Resents David

1 Now when he had finished speaking to Saul, *1 Sam. 17:12the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, *Gen. 44:30and Jonathan loved him as his own soul. 2 Saul took him that day, *Deut. 13:6; 1 Sam. 20:17; 2 Sam. 1:26and would not let him go home to his father’s house anymore. 3 Then Jonathan and David made a *1 Sam. 17:15covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
