Contextual Overview
48 It happened, when the Pelishti arose, and came and drew near to meet David, that David hurried, and ran toward the army to meet the Pelishti. 49 David put his hand in his bag, and took there a stone, and slang it, and struck the Pelishti in his forehead; and the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the eretz. 50 So David prevailed over the Pelishti with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Pelishti, and killed him; but there was no sword in the hand of David. 51 Then David ran, and stood over the Pelishti, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath of it, and killed him, and cut off his head therewith. When the Pelishtim saw that their champion was dead, they fled. 52 The men of Yisra'el and of Yehudah arose, and shouted, and pursued the Pelishtim, until you come to Gai, and to the gates of `Ekron. The wounded of the Pelishtim fell down by the way to Sha`arayim, even to Gat, and to `Ekron. 53 The children of Yisra'el returned from chasing after the Pelishtim, and they plundered their camp. 54 David took the head of the Pelishti, and brought it to Yerushalayim; but he put his armor in his tent. 55 When Sha'ul saw David go forth against the Pelishti, he said to Aviner, the captain of the host, Aviner, whose son is this youth? Aviner said, As your soul lives, O king, I can't tell. 56 The king said, "Inquire whose son the young man is!" 57 As David returned from the slaughter of the Pelishti, Aviner took him, and brought him before Sha'ul with the head of the Pelishti in his hand.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines,.... The remainder that escaped having got into their fortified cities:
and they spoiled their tents; which they left in their camp, all their armour, goods, money, and provisions, they found there, they seized upon as their prey and booty; these they did not stay to meddle with as soon as the Philistines fled, but first pursued them, and slew as many of them as they could, and then returned to the spoil; which was wisely done.
