ExplanationCommentary
Verse 7. Months. Hebrew “days and four months.” The former expression denotes a year; though some would have it, that David remained “four months and a few days” in the country. He probably continued so many months at Geth, (verse 9, 11,) and about a year at Siceleg. Calmet.—Septuagint have “days, four months;” and Salien adopts that term. Bible. See Calmet. 29:3. D.
