JONATHAN AND DAVID: A NOBLE
FRIENDSHIP
LESSON TEXT—I Samuel 18:1-4; 20:
14-17, 82. 84, 41, 42; II Samuel 1:17-27.
GOLDEN TEXT—A man that hath
friends must show himself friendly and
there Is a friend that stlcketh closer
than a brother.
PRIMARY TOPIC—Two True Friends.
JUNIOR TOPIC—David and Jona
than, Friends.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP
IC—Finding Worthy Friends.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP
IC—The Friend Who Does Not Fail.
The friendship of David and Jona
than has become Immortalized in the
world’s thought, it was unique In that
it occurred between two men of rival
worldly interests. Jonathan was the
crow’n prince, heir to the throne
according to hereditary rights. David
was heir bji divine choice and ar
rangement. Jonathan knew this and
magnanimously waived his natural
personal rights In favor of the one
he knew God had chosen.
I. Friendship Established Between
David and Jonathan (I Sam. 18:1-4).
1. Love at sight (vv. 1, 2).
Following the interview of Saul and
David, after the victory over Goliath,
Jonathan’s soul was knit with that of
David. He loved David as his own
aoul. While there was mutual love,
this pleasing trait stands out more
prominently In Jonathan than in
David.
2. A covenant established (vv. 3, 4).
The bringing of David Into Saul’s
home gave opportunity for expression
of love between Jonathan and David.
This love resulted In the establish
ment of a covenant between them.
Following this love covenant, Jona
than stripped himself of his court
robe and his equipment and gave
them to David. This act was a vir
tual abdication of the throne to
David.
II. Jonathan Doiondod David Against
Saul’s Fronay (I Sam. 19:1-7).
David went into tiie battle with Go
liath out of zeal for God and true re
ligion, not for personal glory, but it
turned out as always, that because he
put God first, God honored him. On
David's return from victory over the
Philistines, according to oriental cus
tom. he was met by a triumphal
chorus of womeu of all the cities of
Israel, chanting > praises to him for
his victory over their enemy. They
.ascribed more praise and honor to
David than to Saul. To hear sung the
praises of a shepherd boy as surpass-
log his own was too much for Saul.
It aroused murderous envy which had
been slumbering in his heart and
moved him to attempt twice to kill
David. This Is not an imaginary sin.
Its counterpart may be found In many
of our own hearts The only cure for
this dreadful evil is to put God first
—to think more of him and our duty
to him than our reputation before
men. In Saul’s third attempt to kill
David. .Tonalban defended him before
his father, from whom he secured the
oath that David should not he slain.
III. Jonathan Revealed to David
Saul's Murderous Attempt Sam.
20:30 40).
The beginning of the new moon was
celebrated by sacrifices and feasting
at which all the members of the fam
ily were expected to be present (v. 5).
David’s excuse for being absent was
that he might go home to attend the
yearly sacrifice of his family. The
annual feast was more important than
the luouthTy feast. Mutters were now
wo serious that Jonathan and David
renewed the covenant between them.
Id this renewal the terms were broad
ened beyond the life of Jonathan (vv.
14, 15). Saul’s anger was now so fierce
that for Jonathan to be found In
David's company was most danger
ous. so he cleverly planned a sign by
which he could make known to David
Seuls attitude and purpose. True
friendship is proven in warning those
who are exposed to danger.
Concerning friendships, observe:
1. It should be made while both
parties are young. This (s the time
when hearts are capable of being knit
together.
2. Heal friends are few. Great care
abould be exercised in the formation
of friendships* for while loving every
body, It is .possible to have only a
few friends.
3. Both parties must be God fearing.
David and Jonathan both recognized
their obligation to the Lord, and that
bis help was essential to the welfare
♦f both.
IV. David Mourns for Jonathan (I)
8am. 1:17-27).

death be sincerely mourned, rernem
