1 Samuel14:44
44 And Saul answered, God do so, and more also : for thou shalt surely die , Jonathan.
From this, and other like expressions of Saul's, some gather that he was exceeding prone to the vice of Swearing and Cursing.
Stange perversness! He who was so Indulgent, as to spare wicked Agag, chap. 15. is now so severe as to destroy his own worthy Son: he that could easily dispense with Gods Righteous and Reasonable Command, will not bear the violation of his own rash and foolish command; because his own Authority and Power is concerned in this, and onely Gods in the other.
