Jonathan

  
David and Jonathan, by Rembrandt

Jonathan is the son of Saul, the first king of Israel and the heir to the throne. But he also is the friend of David, the shepherd, who has been secretly anointed by Samuel to be king after Saul. (1 Samuel 16:11-13) While you might think this would cause enmity and anger in Jonathan, it does not. Jonathan  "loved him as his own soul" (I Samuel 18:3-4).  Saul, however, has ambivalent feelings. At first he seems to love David, but later tries to kill him. Eventually both Saul and Jonathan are killed in a battle against the Philistines. Jonathan, as the son of one and the friend of the other, seems to represent something in between, those parts of the literal sense where the internal sense is clearly presented. Such places are for example, the Ten Commandments, Deuteronomy 30:11-19, Micah 6:8, the Two Great Commandments, plus many others.
