Psalms 59:6 - Exposition

They return at evening. Having traced David to his house, they disperse for a time, but "return" again at evening, and take up their watch ( 1 Samuel 19:11 ). They make a noise like a dog; i.e. snarl and growl, quarrelling more or less among themselves during the night time. And go round about the city. Either wander vaguely about, as dogs do for prey, or patrol the walls and gates to see that David does not quit the city, and so escape them.
