TSK · Proverbs 18:24

Jonathan made a covenant with David, for he loved him as much as he did his own life.

When David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the plunder to the elders of Judah who were his friends, saying,“Here’s a gift for you from the looting of the LORD’s enemies!”

David Finds Mephibosheth Then David asked,“Is anyone still left from the family of Saul, so that I may extend kindness to him for the sake of Jonathan?”

Absalom said to Hushai,“Do you call this loyalty to your friend? Why didn’t you go with your friend?”

Mephibosheth said to the king,“Let him have the whole thing! My lord the king has returned safely to his house!”

All these men were warriors who were ready to march. They came to Hebron to make David king over all Israel by acclamation; all the rest of the Israelites also were in agreement that David should become king.

Ointment and incense make the heart rejoice, likewise the sweetness of one’s friend from sincere counsel.

Immediately he went up to Jesus and said,“Greetings, Rabbi,” and kissed him.
