1 Samuel 30:9 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 30:9

So David went, he and the six hundred men that [were] with him,
&c.] Encouraged by the oracle of the Lord:

and came to the brook Besor;
which Adrichomius F17 places in the tribe of Simeon; it is thought to be near Gaza. Aristaeus F18 speaks of brooks that flowed by Gaza and Ashdod, places that belonged to the Philistines; some take it to be the river of the wilderness in Amos, (See Gill on Amos 6:14):

where those that were left behind stayed:
or a part of them were left, as the Targum; all the six hundred came to this brook, but two hundred of them were left here, ( 1 Samuel 30:10 ) shows, and stayed here till the rest returned; for this is not to be understood of any that were left behind at Ziklag, for all came from thence to this brook.

9 Se partió, pues, David, él y los seiscientos hombres que con él estaban , y vinieron hasta el arroyo de Besor, donde se quedaron algunos.
10 Y David siguió el alcance con cuatrocientos hombres; porque los doscientos se quedaron, que estaban tan cansados que no pudieron pasar el arroyo de Besor.
11 Y hallaron en el campo un hombre egipcio, el cual tomaron, y trajeron a David, y le dieron pan que comiese, y a beber agua;
