1Sa 20:3 | King James | And David sware moreover, and said, Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thine eyes; and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between me and death. |
Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
And David sware moreover - Rather, "yet again." He met Jonathan's denial by repeating his statement and confirming it with an oath. |
