Shmuel Alef 25:5 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 25:5

And David sent out ten young men
Such persons, and such a number of them, he sent to show honour and reverence to Nabal:

and David said, unto the young men, get ye up to Carmel;
which lay higher than the wilderness, in which he was:

and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name;
ask him of his peace and welfare, as the Targum; wish all health and happiness in my name, present my service and best respects to him.

Shmuel Alef 25:5 In-Context

3 Now the shem of the ish was Naval; and the shem of his isha Avigal; and she was an isha of tovat seichel, and beautiful; but the ish was kasheh (churlish, difficult) and rah (mean) in his doings; and he was a descendent of Kalev.
4 And Dovid heard in the midbar that Naval did shear his tzon.
5 And Dovid sent out ten ne’arim, and Dovid said unto the ne’arim, Get you up to Carmel, and go to Naval, and give him a shalom greeting in my shem (name);
6 And thus shall ye say to him, Koh lechai (good fortune to you), shalom to thee, shalom to thine bais, shalom unto all that thou hast.
7 And now I have heard that thou hast shearers; now thy ro’im (shepherds) which were with us, we hurt them not, and nothing was missing by them, all the while they were in Carmel.
