• Without caring about the king’s lack of righteousness and about the grace David had shown to him they turn to the one from whom they hope to obtain advantages or whose displeasure would be able to harm them. Such disdain for David’s person and character are perhaps more terrible than Nabal’s crude affront. The Ziphites are a true picture of the Christian world today. (“1 Samuel 26” by H.L. Rossier)
