1 Samuel 20:1 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

And David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and came and said before Jonathan, What have I done? what is mine iniquity? and what is my sin before thy father, that he seeketh my life? David fled from Naioth - On hearing that Saul had come to that place, knowing that he was no longer in safety, he fled for his life.
