1 Samuel 25:27 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Now this blessing That is, this present or gift. The same phrase is used, 1 Samuel 30:26; 2 Kings 5:15. A present is termed a blessing, not only because the matter of it comes from God's blessing, but also because it is given with a blessing, or with a good will. Let it be given unto the young men As being unworthy of David's own acceptance. Thus humbly she speaks of the noble present she had brought.

1 Samuel 25:27

27 And now this blessingk which thine handmaid hath brought unto my lord, let it even be given unto the young men that follow my lord.
