Commentary for I Kings 1:43

וַיַּ֙עַן֙ יוֹנָתָ֔ן וַיֹּ֖אמֶר לַאֲדֹנִיָּ֑הוּ אֲבָ֕ל אֲדֹנֵ֥ינוּ הַמֶּֽלֶךְ־דָּוִ֖ד הִמְלִ֥יךְ אֶת־שְׁלֹמֹֽה׃

And Jonathan answered and said to Adonijah: ‘Verily our lord king David hath made Solomon king.

But our lord. I.e., “Now, my report is not of good [tidings] for you.”
