"When the messengers came in, behold, the teraphim was in the bed, with the pillow of goats' hair at its head."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And when the messengers were come in,.... To David's house, and into the room where he was supposed to lie: behold, there was an image in the bed to their
great surprise; they expected to see David, but instead of him the teraphim, as in Sa1 19:13 ; if they had been in the room before, and thought they had seen David in the bed, they might be the more surprised to find that it was only an image they saw: with a pillow of goats' hair for his bolster; See Gill on Sa1 19:13 .
