1 Samuel25:44
44 ¶ But Saul had given Michal his daughter, Davids wife, to Phalti the son of Laish, which was of Gallim.
Or, For, as the Hebrew Vau is oft-times used. For this seems to be added, as a reason why David took other Wives, because Saul had given his former Wife to another man, that he might as far as he could Extinguish all Relation and Kindred to him, whom he hated; and withal, cut off his Hopes and Pretence to the Crown upon that account.
