Bible Answer: Qhycrme1, Are you familiar with the relationship between David and Jonathan? Jonathan was King Saul's son and had stuck by David while his father King Saul was out to kill David. Jonathn risked his own life time after time by his loyal love for David. There was never anything remotely inappropriate about their relationship. This is in no way a down cast upon women. It was simply a statement that tried to explain David's tremendous respect and love for all that Jonathan had done. You see, normally, Jonathan would have been in line for the throne, but God had appointed David as the next King. Just think about what kind of man Jonathan must have been by being loyal to whom God appointed! Does this answer your question? In our Lord, InGodITrust |
