1 Samuel 17:38 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 17:38

And Saul armed David with his armour
Not with what he wore himself; for it cannot be thought he would strip himself of his armour in the field of battle, and when just going to it; and besides what suited the one would not be fit for the other, their bulk and stature being different i but this was some armour Saul had brought with him, besides what he himself wore, to furnish any with that might want it:

and he put an helmet of brass upon his head;
such an one, though not so large as Goliath had, these being usually made of brass; (See Gill on 1 Samuel 17:5);

also he armed him with a coat of mail;
which probably was of brass also, and like that of Goliath's too, only lesser, ( 1 Samuel 17:5 ) .

1 Samuel 17:38 In-Context

36 Tu siervo ha matado tanto al león como al oso; y este filisteo incircunciso será como uno de ellos, porque ha desafiado a los escuadrones del Dios viviente.
37 Y David añadió: El SEÑOR, que me ha librado de las garras del león y de las garras del oso, me librará de la mano de este filisteo. Y Saúl dijo a David: Ve, y que el SEÑOR sea contigo.
38 Saúl vistió a David con sus ropas militares, le puso un yelmo de bronce en la cabeza y lo cubrió con una armadura.
39 David se ciñó la espada sobre sus ropas militares y trató de caminar, pues no se las había probado antes. Entonces David dijo a Saúl: No puedo caminar con esto, pues no tengo experiencia con ellas. David se las quitó,
40 y tomando su cayado en la mano, escogió del arroyo cinco piedras lisas y las puso en el saco de pastor que traía, en el zurrón, y con la honda en la mano se acercó al filisteo.
