1 Samuele 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 Samuele 17:38 In-Context

36 Il tuo servitore adunque ha percosso un leone ed un orso; e questo Filisteo incirconciso sarà come uno di essi; perciocchè egli ha schernite le schiere ordinate dell’Iddio vivente.
37 Davide disse ancora: Il Signore che mi ha riscosso dalla branca del leone, e dalla zampa dell’orso, esso mi riscoterà dalla mano di questo Filisteo. E Saulle disse a Davide: Va’, e il Signore sia teco.
38 E Saulle fece armar Davide delle sue armi, e gli mise un elmo di rame in testa, e lo fece armar d’una corazza.
39 Poi Davide cinse la spada di esso sopra le sue armi, e volle camminare con quelle; perciocchè non avea mai provato. E Davide disse a Saulle: Io non posso camminar con queste armi; perciocchè io non ho mai provato. E Davide se le tolse d’addosso.
40 E prese il suo bastone in mano, e si scelse dal torrente cinque pietre pulite, e le pose nel suo arnese da pastore, e nella tasca, avendo la sua frombola in mano. E così si accostò al Filisteo.
