Jonathan has a good heart and wants to believe the best about his father, but also knows that David would not lie to him. At the end of the chapter, Jonathan has lost not just a friend, but in a real sense, his father. Saul claims he wants to kill David to protect Jonathan's throne, but then tries to kill Jonathan, showing that those words are a lie. Saul might want the kingdom to go to Jonathan, but not as much as he wants to kill David. This is a sad time for David, but how much more for the son who has lost a father's love.
