1Sa 29:1-5.
DAVID MARCHING WITH THE PHILISTINES TO FIGHT WITH ISRAEL.
1. Aphek--
(Jos 12:8),
in the tribe of Issachar, and in the plain of Esdraelon. A person who compares the Bible account of Saul's last battle with the Philistines, with the region around Gilboa, has the same sort of evidence that the account relates what is true, that a person would have that such a battle as Waterloo really took place. Gilboa, Jezreel, Shunem, En-dor, are all found, still bearing the same names. They lie within sight of each other. Aphek is the only one of the cluster not yet identified. Jezreel on the northern slope of Gilboa, and at the distance of twenty minutes to the east, is a large fountain, and a smaller one still nearer; just the position which a chieftain would select, both on account of its elevation and the supply of water needed for his troops [HACKETT, Scripture Illustrated].

2. 大衛和跟隨他的人在亞吉的後隊同進——作為亞吉的近衛軍指揮官——亞吉是這支非利士入侵大軍的元帥。
Original en inglés
2. David and his men passed on in the rereward with Achish--as the commander of the lifeguards of Achish, who was general of this invading army of the Philistines.

3節. 這幾天，或這幾年. 他此時與非利士人同住已整整一年零四個月
(1Sa 27:7)， 更早之前也曾有數年與之有關。有人認為，無論因大衛天生的慷慨，還是因預料遲早需要在其領土尋求庇護，他一直與這位非利士君王保持私下聯絡。
Original en inglés
3. these days, or these years--He had now been with the Philistines a full year and four months
(1Sa 27:7),
and also some years before. It has been thought that David kept up a private correspondence with this Philistine prince, either on account of his native generosity, or in the anticipation that an asylum in his territories would sooner or later be needed.

4節. 非利士人的首領向他發怒. 神的主權之護理把大衛從如今所處的危險困境中救出，這當視為可喜之事。但大衛對亞吉所言
(1Sa 29:8)—— 大概他毫無意圖去行的事，即與亞吉一同攻打他的敵人——卻難辭其咎。這正是錯誤的一步——偏離正直的本分之路——把每一個犯此錯誤者引入怎樣不幸後果的一例。
Original en inglés
4. the princes of the Philistines were wroth with him--It must be considered a happy circumstance in the overruling providence of God to rescue David out of the dangerous dilemma in which he was now placed. But David is not free from censure in his professions to Achish
(1Sa 29:8),
to do what he probably had not the smallest purpose of doing--of fighting with Achish against his enemies. It is just an instance of the unhappy consequences into which a false step--a departure from the straight course of duty--will betray everyone who commits it.

9. 雖然非利士人的首領說——非利士政體有憲法上的制衡——或者至少王不是絕對的君主；他的權力是有限的——他的行事可能受到「那粗野早期時代的權勢貴族的控制——很像中世紀歐洲的君王受他們周圍驕橫而不法的貴族所限制」[CHALMERS]。
Original en inglés
9. notwithstanding the princes of the Philistines have said--The Philistine government had constitutional checks--or at least the king was not an absolute sovereign; but his authority was limited--his proceedings liable to be controlled by "the powerful barons of that rude and early period--much as the kings of Europe in the Middle Ages were by the proud and lawless aristocracy which surrounded them" [CHALMERS].
撒上29:1-5。
大衛與非利士人一同行軍要與以色列人爭戰。
1. 亞弗——
(Jos 12:8)，
在以薩迦支派地業中，耶斯列平原上。把聖經對掃羅與非利士人最後一戰的記載與基利波周圍的地形加以比較的人，所得到的證據——證明這記載是真實的——與一個人相信滑鐵盧之戰確曾發生的證據屬同一性質。基利波、耶斯列、書念、隱多珥都能找到，仍保留同樣的名字。它們彼此都在視線範圍之內。亞弗是這一群中唯一尚未被確認的地點。耶斯列在基利波北坡，向東二十分鐘路程處有一個大泉，還有一個更近的小泉；這正是一位首領會選擇的位置——既因地勢高，又因軍隊所需的水源充足[HACKETT, Scripture Illustrated]。
