Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 1. - There can be little doubt that the captains of thousands and hundreds... with every leader, here spoken of, represented what had become by this time a confirmed institution, although in embryo, dating from the time of Moses at least (Numbers 31:14; Deuteronomy 1:15; Judges 20:7; 2 Chronicles 20:21).
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English ReadersXIII.(1) And David consulted.--This consultation took place some time after the coronation at Hebron (comp. 2Samuel 6:1), "And David gathered together again every chosen man i?? Israel, thirty thousand." This is all that Samuel has corresponding to our 1Chronicles 13:1-5. It is by no means necessary to assume that, "according to the context, we are still at Hebron in the assemblage of 350,000 warriors" (Reuss). Samuel implies the contrary.Captains of thousands.--The thousands (comp. 1Chronicles 12:20).And the hundreds.--Comp. Numbers 31:14. The hundreds were the smaller military divisions of the tribe, representing, perhaps, the warlike strength of the houses, as the thousands represented that of the clans or sub-tribes. . . .
