Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And there fell some of Manasseh to David,.... Of the tribe of Manasseh; they took his part, and on his side, and joined him: when he came with the Philistines
against Saul to battle; which was a strong proof of their cordial attachment to him: but they helped them not: the Philistines; neither David nor his men, nor the Manassites that joined them: for the lords of the Philistines, upon advisement; counsel taken among themselves: sent him away; that is, David and his men: saying, he will fall to his master Saul, to the jeopardy of our heads; meaning, that he would go off with his troops to Saul, and betray them into his hands, and with their heads make his peace with him, see Sa1 29:4 .
