1 Samuel 26:4 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 26:4

David therefore sent out spies
To observe if he was coming or come, and where he was, that he might not be surprised by him; for though David knew the Lord was and would be his protection, he thought proper to be upon his guard, and to make use of means for his safety:

and understood that Saul was come in very deed;
that he was most certainly come, and come to some certain place; which he himself went to reconnoitre, as in ( 1 Samuel 26:5 ) .

1 Samuel 26:4 In-Context

2 Então Saul desceu ao deserto de Zife com três mil dos melhores soldados de Israel, em busca de Davi.
3 Saul acampou ao lado da estrada, na colina de Haquilá, em frente do deserto de Jesimom, mas Davi permaneceu no deserto. Quando viu que Saul o estava seguindo,
4 enviou espiões e soube que Saul havia, de fato, chegado.
5 Então Davi foi para onde Saul estava acampado. E viu o lugar onde Saul e Abner, filho de Ner, comandante de seu exército, haviam se deitado. Saul estava deitado no acampamento, com o exército acampado ao redor.
6 Davi perguntou ao hitita Aimeleque e a Abisai, filho de Zeruia, irmão de Joabe: “Quem descerá comigo ao acampamento de Saul?”Disse Abisai: “Irei com você”.
