He was six cubits and a span in height,1 Samuel 21:10That day David fled from Saul and went to Achish king of Gath.1 Samuel 21:11But the servants of Achish said to him, “Is this not David, the king of the land? Did they not sing about him in their dances, saying: ‘Saul has slain his thousands, and David his tens of thousands’?”1 Samuel 21:12Now David took these words to heart and was very much afraid of Achish the king of Gath.1 Samuel 21:13So he changed his behavior before them and feigned madness in their hands; he scratched on the doors of the gate and let his saliva run down his beard.1 Samuel 21:14Then Achish said to his servants, “Look, you can see that the man is insane! Why have you brought him to me?1 Samuel 21:15Am I in need of madmen, that you have brought this man to rave in my presence? Must this man come into my house?”1 Samuel 27:2So David set out with his six hundred men and went to Achish son of Maoch, the king of Gath.1 Samuel 27:3David and his men settled in Gath with Achish. Each man had his family with him, and David had his two wives: Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail of Carmel, the widow of Nabal.1 Samuel 27:4And when Saul learned that David had fled to Gath, he no longer searched for him.1 Samuel 27:5Then David said to Achish, “If I have found favor in your eyes, let me be assigned a place in one of the outlying towns, so I can live there.

Go back and stay with the new king, since you are both a foreigner and an exile from your homeland.2 Samuel 15:20In fact, you arrived only yesterday; should I make you wander around with us today while I do not know where I am going? Go back and take your brothers with you. May the LORD show you loving devotion and faithfulness.”2 Samuel 15:21But Ittai answered the king, “As surely as the LORD lives, and as my lord the king lives, wherever my lord the king may be, whether it means life or death, there will your servant be!”2 Samuel 15:22“March on then,” said David to Ittai. So Ittai the Gittite marched past with all his men and all the little ones who were with him.1 Kings 2:39After three years, however, two of Shimei’s slaves ran away to Achish son of Maacah, king of Gath.

He too was descended from Rapha,1 Chronicles 20:7and when he taunted Israel, Jonathan the son of David’s brother Shimei killed him.1 Chronicles 20:8So these descendants of Rapha in Gath fell at the hands of David and his servants.2 Chronicles 11:8Gath, Mareshah, Ziph,2 Chronicles 26:6Uzziah went out to wage war against the Philistines, and he tore down the walls of Gath, Jabneh, and Ashdod.
