Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And had taken the women captives, that were therein,.... There being no other to take, the men were gone with David: they slew not any, either great or small; that
is, of the women, whether married or unmarried, old, or maidens, or children; which was very much, since David destroyed all that came within his reach, men and women, when he invaded them, Sa1 27:9 ; but perhaps this was not owing to their humanity, but to their covetousness, designing to make an advantage of them by selling them for slaves; no doubt they were restrained by the providence of God: but carried them away, and went on their way; homewards with their captives.
