1Ch 14 | TSK | STEP | Hiram's kindness to David. David's felicity in people, wives, and children. His two victories against the Philistines. A.M. 2961. B.C. 1043. An. Ex. Is. 448. Hiram. Huram. and timber. to build him.

Eliphelet.This variation merely arises from the change of a vowel. Here we have 13 persons mentioned, but only 11 in Samuel; and it is probable that the duplicate Elishama and Eliphelet dying when young, were therefore omitted in the latter.

when thou shalt hear.Some, taking the word {bechaïm,} translated "mulberry trees," as a proper name, render, "when thou shalt hear a sound of going upon the summits of Bechaïm;" other understanding {rosh,} "a top," in the sense of beginning or entrance, read, "when thou hearest a sound of footsteps at the entrance of the grove of mulberry trees;" and others think a rustling among the leaves is intended. The Targumist read, "When thou shalt hear the sound of the angels coming to thy assistance, then go out to battle; for an angel is sent from the presence of God, that he may render thy way prosperous." If there had not been an evident supernatural interference, David might have thought that the {ruse de guerre} which he had used, was the cause of his victory.
