Now David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. He and Samuel went and lived in Naioth.
The triple wonder of all this is that it happened three times to the different groups of messengers, and then a fourth time to the king himself! One can only imagine what a ridiculous figure he cut lying there stark naked on the ground all day and all night!  Yes, God was looking after David.  We are amused at the efforts of commentators who try to cover up Saul's nakedness by insisting that, "he still had on his underclothes."[18] Well, maybe!  However, when daylight came Saul must have been a lot more interested in finding his britches than in finding David.
