1 Samuel 17:28 - Forerunner Commentary

1 Samuel 17:28

26 Then David spoke to the men who stood by him, saying, “What shall be done for the man who kills this Philistine and takes away ^athe reproach from Israel? For who is this ^buncircumcised Philistine, that he should ^cdefy the armies of ^dthe living God?”

27 And the people answered him in this manner, saying, ^a“So shall it be done for the man who kills him.”

28 Now Eliab his oldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab’s ^aanger was aroused against David, and he said, “Why did you come down here? And with whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride and the insolence of your heart, for you have come down to see the battle.”

29 And David said, “What have I done now? ^aIs there not a cause?”

30 Then he turned from him toward another and ^asaid the same thing; and these people answered him as the first ones did.

31 Now when the words which David spoke were heard, they reported them to Saul; and he sent for him.

32 Then David said to Saul, ^a“Let no man’s heart fail because of him; ^byour servant will go and fight with this Philistine.”
