En iedereen in Isral sprak: Hebt gij dien man gezien, die opgetreden is? Want hij is opgetreden om Isral te honen. En wie hem verslaat, dien wil de koning zeer rijk maken en hem zijne dochter geven, en zijn vaderlijk huis vrij maken in Isral.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the men of Israel said,.... To one another:

have ye seen this man that is come up? taken notice of him, and observed him?

surely to defy Israel is he come up; to challenge them to fight with him, and upbraid them with cowardice that they did not:

and it shall be [that] the man who killeth him; this, and what follows, they said to encourage any person to engage with him, though none of them cared to encounter him themselves:

the king will enrich him with great riches; give him a large gratuity, make a present of a great sum of money to him:

and will give him his daughter to be his wife, in like manner as Caleb promised to give his daughter in marriage to the person that should take Kirjathsepher, Judges 1:12;

and make his father's house free in Israel; from all tributes, taxes, levies, impositions, king's service, and duty; or, as the Targum,

"make his father's house freemen, nobles;''

raise it to the rank of nobility.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Free in Israel - In all the other passages (fifteen) where this word occurs, it means free, as opposed to being a slave (Deuteronomy 15:12-13, Deuteronomy 15:18, etc.) Here it may imply a freedom from all such services and burdens as are spoken of in 1 Samuel 8:11-17.
