| anoint him--done only in the case of a new dynasty or disputed succession (see on Sa1 16:13; Sa2 2:1). |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
| Anoint him - Inauguration into each of the three offices (those of prophet, priest, and king) typical of the Messiah or Anointed One, was by anointing with oil. Divine appointment had already instituted the rite in connection with the kingly office Sa2 2:4; but after Solomon we have no express mention of the anointing of kings, except in the three cases of Jehu, Joash, and Jehoahaz Kg2 9:6; Kg2 11:12; Kg2 23:30, who were all appointed irregularly. At the time of the captivity, kings, whose anointing has not been related in the historical books, still bear the title of "the anointed of the Lord." Lam 4:20; Psa 89:38, Psa 89:51. |
| Commentary on the Old Testament, by Carl Friedrich Keil and Franz Delitzsch [1857-78] |
| The blowing of the trumpet and the cry "Long live the king" (cf. Sa1 10:24) were to serve as a solemn proclamation after the anointing had taken place. |
| Explanatory Notes on the Whole Bible, by John Wesley [1754-65] |
| Anoint - As they used to do where there was any thing new or extraordinary in the succession. And this unction signified both the designation of the persons to the office, and the gifts and graces which were necessary for their office, and which, they, seeking them sincerely from God, might expect to receive. |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
| Blow ye with the trumpet - After he has been anointed, make proclamation that he is king. |
