David and his men settled in Gath The phrase "David and his men settled in Gath" is significant in understanding David's strategic and survival decisions. Gath was one of the five Philistine city-states, and its mention here highlights David's complex relationship with the Philistines. Historically, Gath was a formidable city, known for its giants, including Goliath, whom David had previously defeated. The Hebrew root for "settled" (יָשַׁב, yashab) implies a sense of dwelling or abiding, indicating that David was seeking refuge and stability amidst his ongoing conflict with Saul. This move to Gath, under the protection of Achish, the Philistine king, reflects David's tactical acumen and his ability to navigate political landscapes for the safety of his men and their families. with Achish each man with his family and David had his two wives Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail of Carmel, the widow of Nabal Hebrew Davidדָּוִ֨ד (dā·wiḏ) Noun - proper - masculine singular Strong's 1732: David -- perhaps 'beloved one', a son of Jesse and his men וַאֲנָשָׁ֖יו (wa·’ă·nā·šāw) Conjunctive waw | Noun - masculine plural construct | third person masculine singular Strong's 376: A man as an individual, a male person settled וַיֵּשֶׁב֩ (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 Gath בְּגַ֛ת (bə·ḡaṯ) Preposition-b | Noun - proper - feminine singular Strong's 1661: Gath -- 'wine press', a Philistine city with עִם־ (‘im-) Preposition Strong's 5973: With, equally with Achish, אָכִ֥ישׁ (’ā·ḵîš) Noun - proper - masculine singular Strong's 397: Achish -- king of Gath and each man אִ֣ישׁ (’îš) Noun - masculine singular Strong's 376: A man as an individual, a male person had his family with him. וּבֵית֑וֹ (ū·ḇê·ṯōw) Conjunctive waw | Noun - masculine singular construct | third person masculine singular Strong's 1004: A house David דָּוִד֙ (dā·wiḏ) Noun - proper - masculine singular Strong's 1732: David -- perhaps 'beloved one', a son of Jesse had his two וּשְׁתֵּ֣י (ū·šə·tê) Conjunctive waw | Number - fdc Strong's 8147: Two (a cardinal number) wives, נָשָׁ֔יו (nā·šāw) Noun - feminine plural construct | third person masculine singular Strong's 802: Woman, wife, female Ahinoam אֲחִינֹ֙עַם֙ (’ă·ḥî·nō·‘am) Noun - proper - feminine singular Strong's 293: Ahinoam -- 'my brother is delight', two Israelite women of Jezreel הַיִּזְרְעֵאלִ֔ית (hay·yiz·rə·‘ê·lîṯ) Article | Noun - proper - feminine singular Strong's 3159: A Jezreelitess and Abigail וַאֲבִיגַ֥יִל (wa·’ă·ḇî·ḡa·yil) Conjunctive waw | Noun - proper - feminine singular Strong's 26: Abigail -- 'my father is joy', two Israelite women of Carmel, הַֽכַּרְמְלִֽית׃ (hak·kar·mə·lîṯ) Article | Noun - proper - feminine singular Strong's 3762: Carmelitess -- a Carmelite woman the widow אֵֽשֶׁת־ (’ê·šeṯ-) Noun - feminine singular construct Strong's 802: Woman, wife, female of Nabal. נָבָ֖ל (nā·ḇāl) Noun - proper - masculine singular Strong's 5037: Nabal -- a man of Carmel Links 1 Samuel 27:3 NIV1 Samuel 27:3 NLT 1 Samuel 27:3 ESV 1 Samuel 27:3 NASB 1 Samuel 27:3 KJV 1 Samuel 27:3 BibleApps.com 1 Samuel 27:3 Biblia Paralela 1 Samuel 27:3 Chinese Bible 1 Samuel 27:3 French Bible 1 Samuel 27:3 Catholic Bible OT History: 1 Samuel 27:3 David lived with Achish at Gath he (1Sa iSam 1 Sam i sa) |
