"Wehachanith beyad Shäool, rather, ""and the javelin was in the hand of Saul;"" for the javelin or spear was the emblem of regal authority; and kings had it always in their hand, as may be seen represented on ancient monuments. In ancient times, says Justin, kings used a spear instead of a sceptre." |
