사무엘상 23:19-22 KRV

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - 1 Samuel 23:19

"Doth not David hide himself with us in strong holds?" 1 Samuel 23:19 . A useful spiritual application of these words instantly suggests itself; still we are simply on the ground of accommodation, and not on the ground of critical exposition. The great spiritual lesson is that the good man is always hidden in a stronghold. "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." We are to be hidden in the Rock of Ages. We are not protected merely by the shadow of some perishing... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - 1 Samuel 23:19-26

(19) ¶ Then came up the Ziphites to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Doth not David hide himself with us in strong holds in the wood, in the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of Jeshimon? (20) Now therefore, O king, come down according to all the desire of thy soul to come down; and our part shall be to deliver him into the king's hand. (21) And Saul said, Blessed be ye of the LORD; for ye have compassion on me. (22) Go, I pray you, prepare yet, and know and see his place where his haunt is, and... read more

Him, and therefore will be upon his guard. (Haydock) --- Syriac, "because I am told he is crafty." (Calmet) --- Septuagint, "because Saul said, lest this crafty man should exert all his art;" or, "lest he should be very cunning." (Haydock) --- Saul foreboded that he would again elude his pursuit.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - 1 Samuel 23:19-29

19-29 In the midst of his wickedness, Saul affected to speak the language of piety. Such expressions, without suitable effects, can only amuse or deceive those who hear, and those who use them. This mountain was an emblem of the Divine Providence coming between David and the destroyer. Let us not be dismayed at the prospect of future difficulties, but stay ourselves upon Him who is wonderful in counsel and excellent in working. Sooner than his promise shall fail, he will commission Philistines... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - 1 Samuel 23:14-29

In the Wilderness of Ziph v. 14. And David abode in the wilderness in strongholds, on sheltering heights in the great semiarid region of Southern Judah, whose several parts were named after the cities in the neighborhood, and remained in a mountain in the Wilderness of Ziph, establishing his camp there for some time. And Saul sought him every day, all the days of his life, continually, but God delivered him not into his hand. This remark serves as an introduction to the entire next... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - 1 Samuel 23:15-29

a Relentless Pursuit Foiled 1 Samuel 23:15-29 Amid outward strife, God is sure to provide some rill of human love-a tender friendship, a Jonathan. See Psalms 106:46 . This is the mission of a friend-to strengthen our hands in God, whisper words of hope, and enter into renewed covenants with us. Is not this what our best Friend does? He finds us out in the deepest woods, and whispers His Fear not. There is no hunted soul to whom Jesus will not come to pour in the oil and wine of His... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 1 Samuel 23:1-29

The series of happenings recorded in this chapter reveals most vividly the appalling condition of affairs in the kingdom. Saul, still nominally king, filled with hatred for David, was devoting all his strength to persecuting David; while the affairs of the nation were becoming more and more involved in hopeless confusion. While David in exile was almost certainly the popular idol of the people, their fickleness was manifested in the mean treachery of both the Keilites and the Ziphites, who... read more
