Given him by Achish to live in, when he fled from Saul, ( 1 Samuel 27:6 ) while he yet kept himself close, because of Saul the son of Kish;
when he was an exile from his own country, and obliged to live retired in a foreign one, because of Saul's persecution of him, and seeking to take away his life: and they were among the mighty men, helpers of the war;
not against Saul, with whom David had none, but with the Amalekites, and others, ( 1 Samuel 27:8 ) ( 1 Samuel 30:16 1 Samuel 30:17 ) .
