Contextual Overview
1 One day Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man who was carrying his battle-clothes, "Come, let us go over to the place where the Philistine soldiers are on the other side." But he did not tell his father. 2 Saul was staying beside Gibeah under the pomegranate tree in Migron. There were about 600 men with him, 3 and Ahijah the son of Ahitub, Ichabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the religious leader of the Lord at Shiloh, wearing the linen vest. And the people did not know Jonathan had gone. 4 Between the passes where Jonathan went to cross over to the Philistine soldiers, there was a sharp rock on the one side, and a sharp rock on the other side. The name of one was Bozez. The name of the other was Seneh. 5 One rock stood on the north in front of Michmash. The other stood on the south in front of Geba. 6 Jonathan said to the young man who was carrying his battle-clothes, "Come, let us go over to the place where the soldiers are who have not gone through the religious act of the Jews. It may be that the Lord will work for us, for there is nothing to keep the Lord from saving by many or by few." 7 The young man who was carrying his battle-clothes said to him, "Do all that is in your mind. I am with you in whatever you think to do." 8 Jonathan said, "We will cross over to the men and show ourselves to them. 9 If they say to us, ‘Wait until we come to you,' then we will stand still in our place and not go up to them. 10 But if they say, ‘Come up to us,' then we will go up. For the Lord has given them into our hands. This will be the special thing for us to see."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And his armourbearer said unto him,.... Very readily and cheerfully:
do all that is in thine heart; whatever is thy pleasure, that thou hast a mind to do, that is upon thy heart, and thou art desirous of, and strongly inclined and affected to:
turn thee; which way thou wilt, towards the garrison of the Philistines, or elsewhere:
behold, I am with thee, according to thy heart; I will go with thee wherever thou goest, and do whatsoever thou wouldest have me to do; I am at thy command, and according to thy wish and desire, and in all things subject to thy will; I am as thine own heart.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Samuel 14:7. Behold, I am with thee — I shall accompany thee whithersoever thou goest, and share all thy dangers.
