VERSE 3 
 - the sheepcotes.
  Caves in the rocks, in which it is still common for shepherds
  and their flocks to lodge.  Dr. Pococke observes, "Beyond the
  valley [of Tekoa,] there is a very large grotto, which the
  Arabs call El-Maamah, a hiding place:  the high rocks on each
  side of the valley are almost perpendicular; and the way to
  the grotto is by a terrace formed in the rock, which is very
  narrow.  There are two entrances into it; we went by the
  farthest, which leads by a narrow passage into a very large
  grotto, the rock being supported by natural pillars; the top
  of it rises in several places like domes; the grotto is
  perfectly dry.  There is a tradition, that the people of the
  country, to the number of 30,000, retired into this grotto, to
  avoid a bad air.  This place is so strong, that one would
  imagine it to be one of the strong holds of En-gedi, to which
  David and his men fled from Saul:  and possibly it may be that
  very cave in which he cut off Saul's skirt; for David and his
  men might, with good ease, lie hid there and not be seen by
  him."  Travels, vol. ii. P. 1. p. 41.
