Why did Saul hurl his spear at Jonathan?

1 Samuel 20:32–33 (NEG79)

32 Jonathan répondit à Saül, son père, et lui dit: Pourquoi le ferait-on mourir? Qu'a-t-il fait?

Because Jonathan had sided with David, he had put his life in danger. Saul threw the spear at his son in frustration.1 From this point in time onward, he would demonstrate hostility not only to David but also to those who would dare to support David.2
