Commentary on 1 Samuel 23:6

Theological / Devotional

Abiathar. The supervisor from Nob seems to have reached David at Keilah with news of the massacre (chapter 22:20, 21). Although some have understood “to Keilah” to go with the following verb “came down,” the phrase is generally regarded as meaning that Abiathar first met David at Keilah.
