Contextual Overview

¹² The Lord was with David but had left Saul. So Saul was afraid of David. ¹³ He sent David away and made him commander of a thousand soldiers. So David led them in battle. ¹⁴ He had great success in everything he did because the Lord was with him. ¹⁵ When Saul saw that David was very successful, he feared David even more. ¹⁶ But all the people of Israel and Judah loved David because he led them well in battle. ¹⁷ Saul said to David, "Here is my older daughter Merab. I will let you marry her. All I ask is that you remain brave and fight the Lord 's battles." Saul thought, "I won't have to kill David. The Philistines will do that." ¹⁸ But David answered Saul, saying, "Who am I? My family is not important enough for me to become the king's son-in-law." ¹⁹ So, when the time came for Saul's daughter Merab to marry David, Saul gave her instead to Adriel of Meholah. ²⁰ Now Saul's other daughter, Michal, loved David. When they told Saul, he was pleased. ²¹ He thought, "I will let her marry David. Then she will be a trap for him, and the Philistines will defeat him." So Saul said to David a second time, "You may become my son-in-law."

removed: 1 Samuel 18:17, 1 Samuel 18:25, 1 Samuel 8:12, 1 Samuel 22:7

he went out: 1 Samuel 18:16, Numbers 27:16, Numbers 27:17, 2 Samuel 5:2, Psalms 121:8, Saul was sensible that the Lord was departed from him; while he perceived, with evident sorrow of heart, that the Lord had given David peculiar wisdom, and that he was with him to prosper all his undertakings. This increased the disquietude of his malevolent mind, and his dread of David as a prevailing rival: he therefore removed him from his presence. This impolitic step, however, served the more to ingratiate David with the people, by affording him the opportunity of leading them forth to victory over their enemies.

John 2:25
He did not need anyone to tell him about people, because he knew what was in people's minds.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Therefore Saul removed him from him,.... From court, partly that he might be out of his sight, having such an hatred of his person that he could not bear to see him, and partly that he might be safer from any designs of his upon his life, which he might fear, because of his treatment of him:

and made him his captain over a thousand; not out of respect to him, and in honour of him, but partly to cover his malice, and please the people, and partly in hope that he might be slain by the enemy at the head of his troop:

and he went out and came in before the people; or at the head of them, as the Targum; he led them out to war, and returned with them in safety, with victory and in triumph, with great honour, and highly respected by them; quite contrary to the intention and hope of Saul.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 18:13. Made him his captain — This was under pretence of doing him honour, when it was in effect only to rid himself of the object of his envy.
