1 Samuel 21:10 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

And David arose, and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath. Went to Achish the king of Gath - This was the worst place to which he could have gone: it was the very city of Goliath, whom he had slain, and whose sword he now wore; and he soon found, from the conversation of the servants of Achish, that his life was in the most imminent danger in this place.
