1 Samuel 19:21
Konteks19:21 When it was reported to Saul, he sent more messengers, but they prophesied too. So Saul sent messengers a third time, but they also prophesied.
1 Samuel 25:37
Konteks25:37 In the morning, when Nabal was sober, 1 his wife told him about these matters. He had a stroke and was paralyzed. 2
[25:37] 1 tn Heb “when the wine had gone out from Nabal.”
[25:37] 2 tn Heb “and his heart died within him and he became a stone.” Cf. TEV, NLT “stroke”; CEV “heart attack.” For an alternative interpretation than that presented above, see Marjorie O’Rourke Boyle, “The Law of the Heart: The Death of a Fool (1 Samuel 25),” JBL 120 (2001): 401-27, who argues that a medical diagnosis is not necessary here. Instead, the passage makes a connection between the heart and the law; Nabal dies for his lawlessness.
