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."

his men: 1 Samuel 18:13

slew: Judges 14:19, 2 Samuel 3:14

two hundred men: The Septuagint has only וךבפןם בםהנבע, one hundred men; and as Saul covenanted for a hundred, as David himself says - 2 Samuel 3:14, that he espoused Michal for a hundred, it is very probable that this is the true reading.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Wherefore David arose and went, he and his men, and slew of the Philistines two hundred men,.... This he did himself, for the verb is singular, and which were an hundred more than required; this he did to show his regard to the orders of Saul, and his obedience to him, and to testify the sincerity of his afflictions to his daughter, for whose sake he risked his life in this expedition, as well as to express his zeal for God, and his country, against their avowed enemies; the Greek version has only one hundred men, see 2 Samuel 3:14;

and David brought their foreskins; along with him to Saul's court, having taken them off when slain. Josephus says z he cut off their heads, and brought them to him, and he makes the number to be six hundred; neither are according to the text, but to make his history more agreeable to the Gentiles, see 1 Samuel 18:21; an Arabic writer a makes mention of a people, that cut off the genital parts of men, and gave them to their wives for their dowry:

and they gave them in full tale to the king; the messengers David sent in with them, even the full tale of two hundred, which were as many more as were demanded:

that he might be the king's son in law; being now as desirous of it as the king was:

and Saul gave him Michal his daughter to wife; which he could not in honour refuse to do, seeing he had performed the condition he had required. David's marriage of the younger sister, when upon various considerations it might have been expected that he should have married the elder, may be an emblem of Christ's espousing the Gentile church, when the Jewish church, her elder sister, is neglected by him, she having rejected him.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 18:27. Slew - two hundred men. — The Septuagint has only one hundred men. Saul covenanted with David for a hundred; and David himself says, 2 Samuel 3:14, that he espoused Michal for a hundred: hence it is likely that one hundred is the true reading.
