Saul pursueth David to En-gedi; cometh into a cave in which was David with his men; who cutteth off the skirt of Saul’ s mantle, but will not kill him, 1Sa_24:1-7. He communeth with Saul, and hereby evidenceth his innocency towards him, 1Sa_24:8-15. Saul acknowledgeth his fault, taketh an oath of David, and departeth, 1Sa_24:16-22.
