“And when the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David. And David heard of it, and went out against them.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
14:1-17 David's victories. - In this chapter we have an account of, 1. David's kingdom established. 2. His family built up. 3. His enemies defeated. This is repeated from 2Sa 5. Let the fame of David be looked upon as a type and figure of the exalted honour of the Son of David.
“And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.”
