Now these are they that came to David to Ziklag, while he yet kept himself close because of Saul the son of Kish: and they were among the mighty men, helpers of the war. (1 Chronicles 12:1)
The information in this chapter is not found elsewhere in Scripture. Verses 1-22 contain a register of warriors who went over to David while he was a fugitive from Saul; and vs. 23-40 list the numbers from the various tribes who crowned David king at Hebron.
Ziklag.
A city in southwestern Judah (see on 1 Sam. 27:6). At the time of Saul it was held by the Philistines. When David fled to the Philistines, Achish, the king of Gath, gave him Ziklag as a place of residence (1 Sam. 27:2-7).
