Commentary on 1 Samuel 19:182 voices
David fled, and escaped - to Samuel - He, no doubt, came to this holy man to ask advice; and Samuel thought it best to retain him for the present, with himself at Naioth, where it is supposed he had a school of prophets.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
To Samuel - Both for comfort and direction in his distress; and for safety, supposing that Saul would be ashamed to execute his bloody designs in the presence of so venerable a person as Samuel.
John Wesley· Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical
- 1 Samuel 19:19
When Saul was told that David was at Naioth in Ramah,
Commentary on 1 Samuel 19:192 voices
And it was told Saul,.... By some officious persons who saw David at Ramah, and observed that he and Samuel went together to Naioth: saying, behold, David is at Naioth, in Ramah; or near it; according to R.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
It was a retreat congenial to the mind of David; but Saul, having found out his asylum, sent three successive bodies of men to apprehend him. The character of the place and the influence of the sacred exercises produced such an effect on them that they were incapable of discharging their commission, and were led, by a resistless impulse, to join in singing the praises of God.

- 1 Samuel 20:1
Then David fled from Naioth in Ramah. He came to Jonathan and asked, “What have I done? What is my iniquity? How have I sinned against your father, that he wants to take my life?”
Commentary on 1 Samuel 20:12 voices
And David fled from Naioth in Ramah,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
While Saul was under the constraining influence of the spirit of prophecy, David escaped from Naioth, and, probably by Samuels advice, returned to Sauls court to commune with Jonathan. Nothing could be a better evidence of his innocence than thus putting himself in Jonathans power. Perhaps something passed between Samuel and Saul on the subject, since it appears from 1Sa 20:5, 1Sa 20:25, 1Sa 20:27, that Saul expected David at the feast of the new moon.
