Bible Commentary for 1 Samuel 17:26

Wesley's Notes for 1 Samuel 17:26


17:24 Fled - One Philistine could never have thus put ten thousand Israelites to flight, unless their rock, being forsaken by them, had justly sold them and shut them up.

17:25 Free - Free from all those tributes and charges which either the court or the camp required.

17:28 Naughtiness - Thy false - confidence, and vain gloried curiosity. See the folly and wickedness of envy! How groundless its jealousies are, how unjust its censures, how unfair it representations? God preserve us from such a spirit!
