Context — David Marries Abigail
40When his servants came to Abigail at Carmel, they said, “David has sent us to take you as his wife.”
41She arose, bowed facedown, and said, “Here is your servant, ready to serve and to wash the feet of my lord’s servants.”
42So Abigail hurried and got on a donkey, and attended by five of her maidens, she followed David’s messengers and became his wife.
43David had also married Ahinoam of Jezreel. So she and Abigail were both his wives. 44But Saul had given his daughter Michal, David’s wife, to Palti son of Laish, who was from Gallim.Cross References

And when Rebekah looked up and saw Isaac, she got down from her camel and asked the servant, “Who is that man in the field coming to meet us?” “It is my master,” the servant answered. So she took her veil and covered herself. Then the servant told Isaac all that he had done. And Isaac brought her into the tent of his mother Sarah and took Rebekah as his wife.

1 Samuel 25:42 Summary
In 1 Samuel 25:42, Abigail marries David and becomes his wife, showing her trust in God's plan and her willingness to obey His will. This verse teaches us about the importance of humility, obedience, and trust in our relationships with others and with God (as seen in Proverbs 3:5-6). Abigail's actions also demonstrate her desire to serve and support others, like David and his messengers. By studying Abigail's example, we can learn to trust in God's sovereignty and to serve others with humility and kindness, just like Jesus taught us to do in Matthew 20:26-28.
Frequently Asked Questions
What can we learn from Abigail's decision to marry David in 1 Samuel 25:42?
Abigail's decision to marry David shows her trust in God's sovereignty and her willingness to obey His will, as seen in her humble response to David's messengers in 1 Samuel 25:41, and her desire to serve David, reminiscent of the servant-hearted nature of Jesus Christ in Matthew 20:28.
Why did Abigail bring five maidens with her to marry David?
The five maidens who accompanied Abigail to marry David likely served as her attendants and represented her household, similar to the attendants who accompanied Rebekah when she married Isaac in Genesis 24:61, highlighting the importance of community and support in biblical marriages.
How does Abigail's marriage to David relate to her previous life?
Abigail's marriage to David marked a significant change from her previous life with her husband Nabal, as described in 1 Samuel 25:3, where she was married to a man who was harsh and evil in his dealings, but now she is united with a man after God's own heart, as described in 1 Samuel 13:14.
What does Abigail's actions reveal about her character?
Abigail's actions in 1 Samuel 25:42 reveal her to be a wise, humble, and obedient woman, who is willing to trust in God's plan and provision, much like the virtuous woman described in Proverbs 31:10-31, who is praised for her character and her actions.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways I can demonstrate humility and obedience in my own life, like Abigail did in 1 Samuel 25:41-42?
- How can I trust in God's sovereignty and plan for my life, even when circumstances seem uncertain or difficult?
- In what ways can I serve others, like Abigail served David's messengers, and how can I show hospitality to those around me?
- What are some lessons I can learn from Abigail's experience of leaving her old life behind and starting anew with David, and how can I apply those lessons to my own life?
Gill's Exposition on 1 Samuel 25:42
And Abigail hasted and arose,.... She had no objection nor hesitation in her mind about marrying David but at once consented, and immediately prepared for her journey, having as high an opinion, and
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 1 Samuel 25:42
And when the servants of David were come to Abigail to Carmel, they spake unto her, saying, David sent us unto thee, to take thee to him to wife. No JFB commentary on these verses.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on 1 Samuel 25:42
She went after the messengers; not immediately, but some convenient time after they were gone. She considered not David’ s present straits and penury, which site thought her plentiful estate might supply; nor his danger from Saul; but by a true and strong faith rested upon God’ s promise made to David, not doubting but God would perform it.
Trapp's Commentary on 1 Samuel 25:42
1 Samuel 25:42 And Abigail hasted, and arose, and rode upon an ass, with five damsels of hers that went after her; and she went after the messengers of David, and became his wife.Ver. 42. That went after her.] Heb., At her feet, i.e., pedissequae.
