Commentary on 2 Samuel 23:9

Theological / Devotional

Dodo. Probably the same as Dodai, the commander of the second division of the army, which served during the second month (1 Chron. 27:4).

Defied the Philistines. Eleazar “was with David at Pas-dammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together” (1 Chron. 11:13). Pas-dammim is also given as “Ephes-dammim” (1 Sam. 17:1). It was the place where the Philistines encamped when Goliath defied the armies of Israel and was slain by David.
