” They believed that this was the fulfillment of the promise and that David needed to seize the promise by faith and by the sword.ī. Apparently, on some previous occasion God promised David, “ Behold, I will deliver your enemy into your hand, that you may do to him as it seems good to you. They thought this was an opportunity from God to kill Saul. They knew it was no coincidence that Saul came alone into that cave at that moment. The men of David said to him : David’s men were excited at the opportunity and believed it was a gift from God. And Saul got up from the cave and went on his way.Ī. And he said to his men, “The LORD forbid that I should do this thing to my master, the LORD’s anointed, to stretch out my hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of the LORD.” So David restrained his servants with these words, and did not allow them to rise against Saul. Now it happened afterward that David’s heart troubled him because he had cut Saul’s robe. Then the men of David said to him, “This is the day of which the LORD said to you, ‘Behold, I will deliver your enemy into your hand, that you may do to him as it seems good to you.’” And David arose and secretly cut off a corner of Saul’s robe. (4-7) David restrains himself and his men from killing Saul. This was no coincidence, but was arranged by God to test David, to train David, and display David’s godly heart. David and his men were staying in the recesses of the cave : What are the chances? Saul had to attend to his personal needs at the exact moment he passed by the same cave where David was hiding. His soldiers and bodyguards were outside of the cave waiting for him.Ĭ. The fact that Saul went in to attend to his needs also meant that he went into the cave alone. But something as basic and common as this was timed and arranged by God, without Saul having any knowledge of God’s timing or arrangement of things. Saul went in to attend to his needs : Since the Bible is a real book, dealing with real people living real lives, we aren’t surprised to see it describe Saul’s attention to his personal needs. All or most of David’s 600 men could hide in the recesses of the cave.ī. The sheepfolds : This indicates that this was a large cave, big enough to shelter a flock of sheep.

So he came to the sheepfolds by the road, where there was a cave and Saul went in to attend to his needs. (3) Saul unknowingly comes to a cave where David and his men are hiding. There was plenty of water and wildlife and many caves and defensive positions. In the middle of barren desert, scouts could easily detect approaching troops. This was a great place for David and his men to hide out. One can also see the numerous caves dotting the hills. One can still see the good-sized creek flowing down the canyon, making En Gedi, with its waterfalls and vegetation seem more like a tropical paradise than the middle of the desert. The Wilderness of En Gedi : The En Gedi canyon runs westward from the Dead Sea. That is the only permanent victory we will find.ī. But even when we have victory and they are sent away, they come back, and will keep coming back until we go to glory with the LORD. We wish that the spiritual enemies who pursue us like Saul pursued David would simply give up, and we wouldn’t have to bother with them anymore. We often wish that our next victory would be a permanent victory. But when Saul was done with the Philistines, he went back to pursuing David. When Saul had returned from following the Philistines : In the previous chapter, God miraculously delivered David by drawing Saul away to fight the Philistines at the moment Saul was ready to capture David. Now it happened, when Saul had returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, “Take note! David is in the Wilderness of En Gedi.” Then Saul took three thousand chosen men from all Israel, and went to seek David and his men on the Rocks of the Wild Goats.Ī. (1-2) Saul seeks David in the Wilderness of En Gedi. David doesn’t kill Saul when he has the opportunity. 1 Samuel 24 – David Spares Saul’s Life A.
