He dwells at En Gedi And David went up from there The phrase "went up" in Hebrew is "עָלָה" (alah), which often signifies not just a physical ascent but also a movement towards a place of greater significance or safety. David's journey is not merely geographical; it is a spiritual and strategic ascent. Historically, David is fleeing from King Saul, who is relentlessly pursuing him. This movement signifies a transition from danger to a temporary refuge, reflecting God's providential care over David's life. The phrase "from there" indicates a departure from the wilderness of Ziph, where David had been hiding. This movement is emblematic of the Christian journey, where believers often move from places of trial to places of divine provision. and lived in the strongholds of En-gedi Hebrew And Davidדָּוִ֖ד (dā·wiḏ) Noun - proper - masculine singular Strong's 1732: David -- perhaps 'beloved one', a son of Jesse went up וַיַּ֥עַל (way·ya·‘al) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singular Strong's 5927: To ascend, in, actively from there מִשָּׁ֑ם (miš·šām) Preposition-m | Adverb Strong's 8033: There, then, thither and lived וַיֵּ֖שֶׁב (way·yê·šeḇ) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singular Strong's 3427: To sit down, to dwell, to remain, to settle, to marry in the strongholds בִּמְצָד֥וֹת (bim·ṣā·ḏō·wṯ) Preposition-b | Noun - feminine plural construct Strong's 4679: Fastness, a stronghold of En-gedi. גֶּֽדִי׃ (ge·ḏî) Noun - proper - feminine singular Strong's 5872: Engedi -- 'spring of a kid', a place on west shore of the Dead Sea Links 1 Samuel 23:29 NIV1 Samuel 23:29 NLT 1 Samuel 23:29 ESV 1 Samuel 23:29 NASB 1 Samuel 23:29 KJV 1 Samuel 23:29 BibleApps.com 1 Samuel 23:29 Biblia Paralela 1 Samuel 23:29 Chinese Bible 1 Samuel 23:29 French Bible 1 Samuel 23:29 Catholic Bible OT History: 1 Samuel 23:29 David went up from there and lived (1Sa iSam 1 Sam i sa) |
