Gill's Notes on the Bible

And David said unto his men,.... Provoked to the last degree to have such a rude churlish answer returned to such a civil and humble message as he had sent:

gird you on every man his sword; and prepare to march and chastise Nabal for his insolence:

and they girded on every man his sword; in obedience to David, and in vindication of his honour and their own:

and David also girded on his sword; in order to march at the head of them, fired with indignation at the affront given him:

and there went up after David about four hundred men; out of the six hundred he had with him, 1 Samuel 23:13;

and two hundred abode by the stuff; the baggage in their camp; the Targum is, they

"were left to watch the vessels;''

the things necessary for their use, for the dressing of their food, their bedding, &c.
