Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the young men of the princes of the provinces went out first,.... From Samaria, before the 7000 did:

and Benhadad sent out; of his pavilion, a messenger or messengers to his sentinels, to know what news, and how matters stood, whether Ahab had sent any message, signifying his compliance with his terms:

and they told him, saying, there are men come out of Samaria; but upon what account they could not say.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Ben-hadad sent out, and they told him - The Septuagint has a better reading: “they sent and told the king of Syria.”
