1 Samuel 26:6

Then answered David ,.... Or addressed himself to the two following persons:

and said to Ahimelech the Hittite ; who was either an Hittite by birth, but was become a proselyte, or he was an Israelite that had dwelt among the Hittites, and so had this name given him; the former seems most probable; some say F11 Hieron. Trad. Heb. in lib. Reg. fol. 76. M. this was Uriah the Hittite:

and to Abishai the son of Zeruiah, brother to Joab ; Zeruiah was the sister of David, 1 Chronicles 2:15 ; and these were two sons of hers, who very probably joined David at the cave of Adullam, 1 Samuel 22:1 ,

saying, who will go down with me to Saul to the camp ? that is, which of you two?

and Abishai said, I will go down with thee ; the other being timorous, or Abishai being most forward spoke first.
