1 Samuel 14:41 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Give a perfect lot— There is nothing for lot in the original, and our Marginal shew the innocent, is rather an explanation than a version. The following is Houbigant's version: And Saul said unto the Lord God of Israel, [shew unto us why thou hast not answered thy servant Saul this day. If this iniquity is in me, or in Jonathan my son, discover it by Urim, or if this iniquity is in the people,] discover it by Thummim.

1 Samuel 14:41

41 Therefore Saul said unto the LORD God of Israel, Givek a perfect lot. And Saul and Jonathan were taken: but the people escaped.
