1 Samuel 23:6

Adam Clarke
Bible Commentary

Came down with an ephod - I think this verse should come immediately after 1 Samuel 23:1; (note).

Matthew Henry
Concise Bible Commentary
When princes persecute God's people, let them expect vexation on all sides. The way for any country to be quiet, is to let God's church be quiet in it: if Saul fight against David, the Philistines fight against his country. David considered himself the protector of the land. Thus did the Saviour Jesus, and left us an example. Those are unlike David, who sullenly decline to do good, if they are not rewarded for services.
Saul, 1000 BCE
