1 Samuel 20:23 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 20:23

And [as touching] the matter which thou and I have spoken
of
The covenant they had made between them and their families:

behold, the Lord [be] between me and thee for ever:

``behold, the Word of the Lord be between me and thee a witness for ever.''

1 Samuel 20:23 In-Context

21 Then I'll send off my servant, 'Go find the arrows.' If I yell after the servant, 'The arrows are on this side! Retrieve them!' that's the signal that you can return safely - as God lives, not a thing to fear!

22 But if I yell, 'The arrows are farther out!' then run for it - God wants you out of here!

23 Regarding all the things we've discussed, remember that God's in on this with us to the very end!"

24 David hid in the field. On the holiday of the New Moon, the king came to the table to eat.

25 He sat where he always sat, the place against the wall, with Jonathan across the table and Abner at Saul's side. But David's seat was empty.
