Charles Spurgeon Commentary 1 Samuel 12:4-5

"And they said, Thou hast not defrauded us, nor oppressed us, neither hast thou taken aught of any man`s hand. And he said unto them, Jehovah is witness against you, and his anointed is witness this day, that ye have not found aught in my hand. And they said, He is witness." — 1 Samuel 12:4-5 (ASV)

In the most solemn way, they cleared him; when he rendered to them the account of his stewardship, they all bore witness that everything had been done, not merely according to strict rectitude, but in the most generous spirit of self-consecration. May all of us be enabled so to live that, when our sun goes down, it will be as cloudless a sunset as that of Samuel!
