Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Saul called all the people together to war,.... Or "caused [them] to hear" m summoned them by an herald, whom he sent into all parts of the kingdom to proclaim war, and require them in his name to attend him; which was the prerogative of a king to do:

to go down to Keilah, to besiege David and his men; that was what he privately intended, but the pretence was to make war against the Philistines.

m ישמע "fecit audire", Montanus, Piscator.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 23:8. Saul called all the people together — That is, all the people of that region or district, that they might scour the country, and hunt out David from all his haunts.
