1 Samuel 17:16 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 17:16

And the Philistine drew near morning and evening
Twice a day he came near the camp, within the hearing of it. The Jews F23 say, he took those seasons on purpose to disturb them in reading their "Shema", or "hear, O Israel" and saying their prayers morning and evening:

and presented himself forty days;
Successively, before the armies of Israel, daring them to send down a man to fight with him, and reproaching them for their cowardice in not doing it.

1 Samuel 17:16 In-Context

14 Davi era o mais moço; os três maiores seguiram a Saul,
15 mas Davi ia e voltava de Saul, para apascentar as ovelhas de seu pai em Belem.
16 Chegava-se, pois, o filisteu pela manhã e � tarde; e apresentou-se por quarenta dias.
17 Disse então Jessé a Davi, seu filho: Toma agora para teus irmãos uma refa deste grão tostado e estes dez pães, e corre a levá-los ao arraial, a teus irmãos.
18 Leva, também, estes dez queijos ao seu comandante de mil; e verás como passam teus irmãos, e trarás notícias deles.
