1. 1 Samuel 25:24 (NEG79)
  2. Explication du texte

Why did Abigail refer to David as her lord?

1 Samuel 25:24 (NEG79)

24 Puis, se jetant à ses pieds, elle dit: A moi la faute, mon seigneur! Permets à ta servante de parler à tes oreilles, et écoute les paroles de ta servante.

The repeated use of the title lord by Abigail in reference to David is an indication of deference and respect. She honoured him as the anointed king in waiting, someone whom the Lord had chosen.1
