OLD TESTAMENTNEW TESTAMENT

And the men of Israel said, Have you seen this man that has come up? surely to defy Israel has he come up: and it shall be, that the man who kills him, the king will enrich him with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's house free in Israel.

(Haydock) Yet the people all persisted in the same declaration, so that a promise must have been made. (Menochius) It was never at least fulfilled. (Haydock) Christ having overcome the devil, receives the Church for his spouse. (Worthington)
