1 Samuele 27:9 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 27:9

And David smote the land
In which the above mentioned people dwelt, that is, the inhabitants of it:

and left neither man nor woman alive;
for these being the old Canaanites and Amalekites, according to the law of God were not to be spared, but utterly destroyed; which may be observed to remove the charge of cruelty that might be brought against David on this account, ( Deuteronomy 7:2 ) ( 25:19 ) ; though this must be understood of such that came within his reach; for it is certain there were people of these several names after this; see ( 1 Samuel 30:1 ) ( 2 Samuel 3:3 ) ( 1 Kings 9:15 ) ;

and took away the sheep, and the oxen, and the asses, and the camels,
and the apparel, and returned, and came to Achish;
at Gath, to make a report of what he had been about and done; and what he brought was a good booty for the support of his men and their families.

1 Samuele 27:9 In-Context

7 Or il tempo che Davide passò nel paese dei Filistei fu di un anno e quattro mesi.
8 E Davide e la sua gente salivano e facevano delle scorrerie nel paese dei Gheshuriti, dei Ghirziti e degli Amalekiti; poiché queste popolazioni abitavano da tempi antichi il paese, dal lato di Shur fino al paese d’Egitto.
9 E Davide devastava il paese, non vi lasciava in vita né uomo né donna, e pigliava pecore, buoi, asini, cammelli e indumenti; poi se ne tornava e andava da Akis.
10 Akis domandava: "Dove avete fatto la scorreria quest’oggi?" E Davide rispondeva: "Verso il mezzogiorno di Giuda, verso il mezzogiorno degli Jerahmeeliti e verso il mezzogiorno dei Kenei".
11 E Davide non lasciava in vita né uomo né donna per menarli a Gath, poiché diceva: "Potrebbero parlare contro di noi e dire: Così ha fatto Davide". Questo fu il suo modo d’agire tutto il tempo che dimorò nel paese dei Filistei.
