Child Daughter Death Michal Saul Saul's Till
6:23 Therefore Michal the daughter of Saul had {l} no child unto the day of her death.
(l) Which was a punishment because she mocked the servant of God.
6:23 Therefore - Because of her proud and petulant speech and carriage to David, which God justly punished with barrenness. No child - After this time.
6:20-23 David returned to bless his household, to pray with them, and for them, and to offer up family thanksgiving for this national mercy. It is angels' work to worship God, surely that cannot lower the greatest of men. But even the palaces of princes are not free from family troubles. Exercises of religion appear mean in the eyes of those who have little or no religion themselves. If we can approve ourselves to God in what we do in religion, and do it as before the Lord, we need not heed reproach. Piety will have its praise: let us not be indifferent in it, nor afraid or ashamed to own it. David was contented to justify himself, and he did not further reprove or blame Michal's insolence; but God punished her. Those that honour God, he will honour; but those that despise him, and his servants and service, shall be lightly esteemed.
