Raamattu Bible

1. Aikakirja 12:19

Manassesta siirtyi muutamia Daavidin puolelle, kun hän filistealaisten kanssa meni taistelemaan Saulia vastaan, vaikkeivät he joutuneetkaan auttamaan näitä, sillä filistealaisten ruhtinaat neuvoteltuaan lähettivät hänet pois sanoen: "Hän voisi meidän päämme menoksi siirtyä herransa Saulin puolelle".

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And there fell some of Manasseh to David,.... Of the tribe of Manasseh; they took his part, and on his side, and joined him:

when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle; which was a strong proof of their cordial attachment to him:

but they helped them not: the Philistines; neither David nor his men, nor the Manassites that joined them:

for the lords of the Philistines, upon advisement; counsel taken among themselves: sent him away; that is, David and his men:

saying, he will fall to his master Saul, to the jeopardy of our heads; meaning, that he would go off with his troops to Saul, and betray them into his hands, and with their heads make his peace with him, see

1 Samuel 29:4.
