1 Chronicles 16:22
‘Do not touch My anointed ones! Do no harm to My prophets!’
BSB
ASV
Saying, Touch not mine anointed ones, And do my prophets no harm.
KJV
Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.
Touch not mine anointed - By this title the patriarchs are generally understood: they had a regal and sacerdotal power in the order of God. In the behalf of the patriarchs God had often especially interfered: in behalf of Abraham, Gen 12:17; Gen 20:3; and of Jacob, Gen 31:24; Gen 34:26; Gen 35:5. But the title may be applied to all the Jewish people, who were the anointed, as they were the elect and peculiar people of God. See on Heb 11:26 (note).
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
