1 Samuel15:28

28 And Samuel said unto him, The LORD hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to a neighbour of thine , that is better than thou.

Samuel makes use of the emergent occasion, as a sign, to signify and confirm his former Prediction.

Either, another Man: or, another Israelite: for the word Neighbour, is used both ways: or rather, one of a Neighbouring Tribe, even Iudah, whose Inheritance did not onely joyn to that of Benjamin, but was partly mixed with it.

Marginal references: Chap. 28. 17. 1 King. 11. 3[illegible: 1+ letters].
