1 Samuel18:4

4 And Jonathan stript himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle .

Partly, as a pledge of his great respect and affection to him: and partly, to vindicate David from that contempt which might cleave to him for his former Pastoral habit and condition, and to put him into an habit suitable to his present Greatness and Glory.
