Verse 27. Seer, supposing he was high priest, along with Abiathar, he might be thus addressed as one who consulted God by the ephod, as he might also, if he presided over the prophets, like Chonenias. 1 Chronicles 15:22. Dionysius. Menochius.—Hebrew “Art not thou a seer?” a prudent man, who may be of greater service to me in the city; ( Bible. or) seest thou not “the state of my affairs?” Septuagint “See and return.” Follow my advice, or then act as your own wisdom dictates. Calmet.
