Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And there was war again,.... Between Israel and the Philistines; it does not appear that either of them sent out their whole force, only some parties or detachments, between which
there were skirmishes: and David went out and fought with the Philistines; he went out with his thousand men, over which he was made captain, Sa1 18:13 ; for he had not the command of the whole army; that belonged to Abner: and slew them with a great slaughter, and they fled from him; he killed many of them in his engagements with them, and the rest fled, and he returned victorious; which stirred up the envy and increased the jealousy of Saul, to observe which this is related.
