1 Samuel 29:9 - Forerunner Commentary

1 Samuel 29:9

7 Therefore return now, and go in peace, that you may not displease the lords of the Philistines.”

8 So David said to Achish, “But what have I done? And to this day what have you found in your servant as long as I have been with you, that I may not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king?”

9 Then Achish answered and said to David, “I know that you are as good in my sight ^aas an angel of God; nevertheless ^bthe princes of the Philistines have said, ‘He shall not go up with us to the battle.’

10 Now therefore, rise early in the morning with your master’s servants ^awho have come with you. And as soon as you are up early in the morning and have light, depart.”

11 So David and his men rose early to depart in the morning, to return to the land of the Philistines. ^aAnd the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
