Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
The wood devoured more people - It is generally supposed that, when the army was broken, they betook themselves to the wood, fell into pits, swamps, etc., and, being entangled, were hewn down by David' s men; but the Chaldee, Syriac, and Arabic, state that they were devoured by wild beasts in the wood.
