TSNTyndale Study Notes:

16:1-23 David was Saul’s replacement. There are striking similarities between the two: Samuel anointed both. Neither was pursuing the position. Both were unlikely candidates (Saul was from the smallest tribe; David was the youngest son). Both were impressive in appearance (9:2; 16:12). And the Spirit came mightily on each when he was anointed king (10:10; 11:6; 16:13). The key difference was that David was “a man after [God’s] own heart” (13:14; cp. 16:7), while Saul was not.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

(Occurrence 0) Now … appearance

(Some words not found in UHB: and,sent and,brought_~_in,him and=he ruddy with beautiful eyes and=good appearance and=he/it_said YHWH arise anoint,him that/for/because/then/when this he/it )

The word “Now” is used here to mark a break in the main story line. Here the narrator tells about a new person in the story.

(Occurrence 0) this son was ruddy

(Some words not found in UHB: and,sent and,brought_~_in,him and=he ruddy with beautiful eyes and=good appearance and=he/it_said YHWH arise anoint,him that/for/because/then/when this he/it )

The word “ruddy” means David was healthy looking.
