And the three eldest, went after Saul. 15 Dauid also went, and departed from Saul, to feede his fathers sheepe at Bethlehem. 16 And the Philistine came foorth in the morning and euening, and continued fourtie dayes. 17 And Isai sayd vnto Dauid his sonne: Take for thy brethren an Epha of this partched corne, & these ten loaues, and runne to the hoast to thy brethren. 18 And cary these ten freshe cheeses vnto the captayne, and loke howe thy brethren fare, and set out their pledge. 19 And Saul and they and all the men of Israel were in the valley of Elah, fyghtyng with the Philistines. 20 And Dauid rose vp early in ye morning, and left the sheepe with a keper, & toke, and went as Isai had commaunded him, and came within the compasse of the hoast: And the hoast went out in array, and shouted in the battaile. 21 For Israel and the Philistines had put them selues in array armie against armie.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And David was the youngest,.... For the sake of whom this account is given of Jesse and his family, and who after this makes a considerable figure in the camp and court of Saul:

and the three eldest followed Saul; as before related, and which is repeated, that it might be observed that they only of Jesse's sons followed Saul; not David particularly, but who was providentially sent to the army at the time the Philistine was defying it.
