This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Detained before the Lord - Probably fulfilling some vow to the Lord, and therefore for a time resident at the tabernacle.
And his name was Doeg - From 1Sa 22:9 we learn that this man betrayed David’s secret to Saul, which caused him to destroy the city, and slay eighty-five priests. We learn from its title that the fifty-second Psalm was made on this occasion; but titles are not to be implicitly trusted.
