SEV Biblia, Chapter 23:26
Y Saśl iba por un lado del monte, y David con los suyos por el otro lado del monte; y David se daba prisa para ir delante de Saśl; mas Saśl y los suyos habían encerrado a David y a los suyos para tomarlos.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Samuel 23:26
Verse 26. Saul went on this side of the mountain] Evidently not knowing that David and his men were on the other side.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 26. And Saul went on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain , etc.] Saul with his army came to the very mountain where David and his men were, the one was on one side of it, and the other on the other side; there was only one mountain between them: and David made haste to get away for fear of Saul ; he fled on one side of the mountain, while Saul was pursuing him on the other, and hastening to get round unto him: for Saul and his men compassed David and his men round about to take them ; he took methods by dividing his troops, and sending them different ways, to surround David and his men, and had very near effected it.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 19-29 - In the midst of his wickedness, Saul affected to speak the language of piety. Such expressions, without suitable effects, can only amuse of deceive those who hear, and those who use them. This mountain was a emblem of the Divine Providence coming between David and the destroyer Let us not be dismayed at the prospect of future difficulties, but sta ourselves upon Him who is wonderful in counsel and excellent in working. Sooner than his promise shall fail, he will commissio Philistines to effect our escape, at the very moment when our cas appears most desperate. God requires entire dependence on him, If y will not believe, surely ye shall not be established, Isa 7:9 __________________________________________________________________
