sa1 22:22
sa1 22:22And David said unto Abiathar, I knew it that day,.... That is, he thought in his mind at that time:
when Doeg the Edomite was there; at Nob; in the tabernacle, at the same time that David was there:
that he would surely tell Saul; that he saw David there, and what passed between him and Ahimelech; he knew he was a spiteful mischievous man; that he was a true Edomite, though a proselyte, and bore hatred and enmity in his mind against an Israelite, and especially an Israelite indeed, as David was:
I have occasioned the death of all the persons of thy father's house: or have been the cause of all the evils that befell them, and the death they were put unto, not with design, but by accident; and it grieved him that he should be any ways an accessory thereunto, though without intention.
