Barnes' Notes
The skill of the Benjamites as archers is noted in I Chronicles 8:40, and II Chronicles 14:8. Their proficiency in using the left hand appears in the narrative of Judges (Judges 3:15, and marginal reference) where their special excellency as slingers is also noticed.
Even of Saul' s brethren - Compare I Chronicles 12:29. Even of Saul' s own tribe there were some who separated themselves from his cause, and threw in their lot with David.
