“And he bowed himself, and said, What is thy servant, that thou shouldest look upon such a dead dog as I am?”
David said to him, 'Do not be afraid; for I will show you kindness for the sake of your father Jonathan, and I will restore to you all the land of your grandfather Saul, and you yourself shall eat at my table always.' - David's triple promise ensures security: kindness for Jonathan's sake, restoration of ancestral lands, permanent place at the royal table. The covenant friendship transcends death; David honors Jonathan by honoring his son.
