      1  The companies that came to David at Ziklag.
    23  The armies that came to him at Hebron.
    
    
    VERSE 1
    - these are.
       * 1Sa 27:2,6 2Sa 1:1; 4:10
    - while he yet, etc.  Heb. being yet shut up.
      Sometimes, in the East, when a successful prince endeavored
      to extirpate the preceding royal family, some of them escaped
      the slaughter, and secured themselves in an impregnable
      fortress, or in a place of great secrecy; while others have
      been known to seek an asylum in a foreign county, from when
      they have occasioned, from time to time, great anxiety and
      great difficulties to the usurper of the crown.  The
      expression shut up, so often applied to the extermination of
      eastern royal families.  (De 32:32.  1 Ki 10 14:10; 21 21:21.  2 Ki
      8 9:8; 26 14:26,) strictly speaking, refers to the two first of
      these cases; but the term may be used in a more extensive
      sense, for those who, by retiring into deserts, or foreign
      countries, preserve themselves from being slain by the men who
      usurp the dominions of their ancestors.  Thus the term is here
      applied to David, though he did not shut himself up, strictly
      speaking, in Ziklag.  It is described as a town in the
      country, and was probably an unwalled town; and it is certain
      that he did not confine himself to it, but, on the contrary,
      was continually making excursions from thence.

       * Ge 32:2 Jos 5:14 Ps 148:2
    
    
    VERSE 23 
     - A.M. 2956.  B.C. 1048.  An. Ex. Is. 433.  the numbers.

      Some learned men understand this as relating to the time when
      David was make king over Judah, on his first coming to Hebron:
      but it seems wholly to refer to his being made king over all
      Israel, after the death of Ishbosheth; for there was no such
      union or assembly of the several tribes on the former
      occasion, as is here described.

    VERSE 32

      That is, as the following words indicate, intelligent men, who
      understood the signs of the times, well versed in political
      affairs, and knew what was proper to be done in all the
      exigencies of human life; and who now perceived that it was
      both the duty and political interest of Israel to advance
      David to the throne.
    
       * Ge 49:14 Es 1:13 Isa 22:12-14; 33:6 Mic 6:9 Mt 16:3

    VERSE 38 
     - with a perfect heart.
      The meaning of this expression may be inferred from that of a
      double heart in ver. 33.  If a double heart be expressive of
      insincerity or duplicity, a perfect heart, which seems to be
      put in opposition to it, must signify a sincere, faithful, and
      entire attachment.

    - all the rest.

       * Ge 26:30; 31:54 2Sa 6:19; 19:42
    
    
    VERSE 40 
     - brought.
      The Septuagint reads [                  ,] "brought (to) them"
      which is probably correct; the Hebrew {lahem,} "to them" might
      be easily mistaken for {lechem,} "bread."  The passage will
      then read, "bought them on asses, on camels, and on mules, and
      on oxen, meat, meal, cakes of figs," etc., which renders the
      introduction of and unnecessary.  From the mention of oil,
      figs, and raisins, Mr. Harmer thinks that this assembly was
      held in autumn.
    
       * 2Sa 16:1; 17:27-29
    - meat, meal.  or, victual of meal.  cakes of figs.
       * 1Sa 25:18
    - there was joy.
       * 1Ki 1:40 2Ki 11:20 Pr 11:10; 29:2 Jer 23:5,6 Lu 19:37,38
