{"author":null,"backreferences":[{"context_html":"<p>In this way, too, the kingdom of Saul himself, who certainly\r\nwas reprobated and rejected, was the shadow of a\r\nkingdom yet to come which should remain to eternity. For,\r\nindeed, the oil with which he was anointed, and from that\r\nchrism he is called Christ, is to be taken in a mystical sense,\r\nand is to be understood as a great mystery; which David\r\nhimself venerated so much in him, that he trembled with\r\nsmitten heart when, being hid in a dark cave, which Saul\r\nalso entered when pressed by the necessity of nature, he had\r\ncome secretly behind him and cut off a small piece of his\r\nrobe, that he might be able to prove how he had spared him\r\nwhen he could have killed him, and might thus remove from\r\nhis mind the suspicion through which he had vehemently\r\npersecuted the holy David, thinking him his enemy. Therefore\r\nhe was much afraid lest he should be accused of violating\r\nso great a mystery in Saul, because he had thus meddled\r\neven his clothes. For thus it is written: \"And David's\r\nheart smote him because he had taken away the skirt of his<span class=\"pagenum\"><a id=\"Page_185\">[Pg 185]</a></span>\r\ncloak.\"<a id=\"FNanchor_391_391\"></a><a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_391_391\">[391]</a> But to the men with him, who advised him to destroy\r\nSaul thus delivered up into his hands, he saith, \"The Lord forbid\r\nthat I should do this thing to my lord, the Lord's christ, to lay\r\nmy hand upon him, because he is the Lord's christ.\" Therefore\r\nhe showed so great reverence to this shadow of what was\r\nto come, not for its own sake, but for the sake of what it\r\nprefigured. Whence also that which Samuel says to Saul,\r\n\"Since thou hast not kept my commandment which the Lord\r\ncommanded thee, whereas now the Lord would have prepared\r\nthy kingdom over Israel for ever, yet now thy kingdom shall\r\nnot continue for thee; and the Lord will seek Him a man after\r\nHis own heart, and the Lord will command him to be prince\r\nover His people, because thou hast not kept that which the Lord\r\ncommanded thee,\"<a id=\"FNanchor_392_392\"></a><a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_392_392\">[392]</a> is not to be taken as if God had settled\r\nthat Saul himself should reign for ever, and afterwards, on his\r\nsinning, would not keep this promise; nor was He ignorant\r\nthat he would sin, but He had established his kingdom that\r\nit might be a figure of the eternal kingdom. Therefore he\r\nadded, \"Yet now thy kingdom shall not continue <i>for thee</i>.\"\r\nTherefore what it signified has stood and shall stand; but it\r\nshall not stand for this man, because he himself was not to\r\nreign for ever, nor his offspring; so that at least that word\r\n\"for ever\" might seem to be fulfilled through his posterity\r\none to another. \"And the Lord,\" he saith, \"will seek Him\r\na man,\" meaning either David or the Mediator of the New\r\nTestament,<a id=\"FNanchor_393_393\"></a><a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_393_393\">[393]</a> who was figured in the chrism with which David\r\nalso and his offspring was anointed. But it is not as if He\r\nknew not where he was that God thus seeks Him a man,\r\nbut, speaking through a man, He speaks as a man, and in this\r\nsense seeks us.
