1 Samuel 20: David Bows to Lord Jonathan, Both as ? for Us - a podcast by KFUO Radio

Rev. David Boisclair, pastor of Faith and Bethesda Lutheran Churches in North St. Louis County, Missouri, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study 1 Samuel 20.

“Therefore deal kindly with your servant, for you have brought your servant into a covenant of the LORD with you. But if there is guilt in me, kill me yourself, for why should you bring me to your father?” David was Jonathan’s subordinate, and he comes to him in chapter 21 as a supplicant. Their “love” was like the love between God and His people: on the one side, blessing and protection. On the other side, obedience and submission. And yet both of them also prefigure the Lord Jesus: like Jonathan, as He emptied Himself of His rights and claims to elevate His servant, and like David, as He submitted Himself to His Father’s will before rising and ascending.
