1 Samuele 17:14 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 17:14

And David was the youngest
For the sake of whom this account is given of Jesse and his family, and who after this makes a considerable figure in the camp and court of Saul:

and the three eldest followed Saul;
as before related, and which is repeated, that it might be observed that they only of Jesse's sons followed Saul; not David particularly, but who was providentially sent to the army at the time the Philistine was defying it.

1 Samuele 17:14 In-Context

12 Or Davide, figliuolo di quell’uomo Efrateo, da Bet-lehem di Giuda, il cui nome era Isai costui avea otto figliuoli, ed al tempo di Saulle era già vecchio, e passava fra gli uomini onorati;
13 e i tre figliuoli maggiori d’Isai erano andati dietro a Saulle alla guerra; e i nomi dei tre figliuoli di esso ch’erano andati alla guerra, erano Eliab, il primogenito, e Abinadab, il secondo, e Samma, il terzo; e Davide era il minore;
14 e i tre maggiori seguitavano Saulle;
15 Davide, dico, di tempo in tempo tornava d’appresso a Saulle, per pasturar la greggia di suo padre, in Bet-lehem.
16 E quel Filisteo si faceva avanti mattina e sera; e si presentò così quaranta giorni.
