Contextual Overview

10 These are David's chief warriors, who, under his rulership, joined forces with him and with all Isra'el to make him king, as Adonai had said concerning Isra'el; 11 here is the list of David's warrior-heroes: Yashov‘am son of a Hakhmoni, the chief officer; he is the one who raised his spear against 300 men and killed them in a single encounter. 12 After him was El‘azar the son of Dodo the Achochi, one of the three warriors. 13 He was with David at Pas-Damim, where the P'lishtim had assembled for battle. There was a plot of ground full of barley; and when the people fled from the P'lishtim, 14 they stood in the middle of the plot and defended it, killing the P'lishtim; and Adonai saved them with a great victory. 15 Three of the thirty leaders went down to the rock and came to David during harvest season at the cave of ‘Adulam when the army of the P'lishtim had set up camp in the Refa'im Valley. 16 At that time David was in the fortress, and the garrison of the P'lishtim was in Beit-Lechem. 17 David had a craving and said, "I wish someone could give me water to drink from the well by the gate of Beit-Lechem!" 18 The three broke through the army of the P'lishtim, drew water from the well by the gate of Beit-Lechem, took it and brought it to David. But David would not drink it; instead, he poured it out to Adonai 19 and said, "My God forbid that I should do such a thing! Am I to drink the blood of these men who went and put their lives in jeopardy? They risked their lives to bring it!" — and he would not consent to drink it. These are the things the three warrior-heroes did.
