1 Samuel 18:30 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

The princes of the Philistines went forth To fight with the Israelites: who had highly incensed them by David's late action, as well as by former losses. David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul, &c. By discovering, it is likely, the designs of the Philistines, and preventing them. For we do not read that they came to a battle.
