1 Sam. 21:14      1 Sam. 22:1

First Samuel 21:15

[He continues sarcastically:] Am I lacking fools, that you have brought this madman before me to show off his folly? Should such a one enter my house?"
[Once free, David reflects on these events and realizes that he acted out of fear of man rather than fear of God, see Psalm 56:4–5. He humbles himself before God and writes Psalm 56. Perhaps in connection with this, or later, Psalm 34 is written. Here David praises God for how he has delivered him, despite his fear and sin, and wants to show how a right and healthy fear of God means that we need not be afraid of anything. See Ps. 34 and Ps. 56.]
