"So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, Let the LORD even require it at the hand of David’s enemies."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David,.... Not with David himself only, which was now renewed, but with his family also: saying, let the Lord even require
it at the hand of David's enemies; take vengeance on Jonathan, or on any of his posterity, should they break this covenant, by showing themselves enemies to David, and his crown; and, on the other hand, also on David, and his posterity, should they not show kindness to Jonathan and his seed, according to the tenor of this covenant.
