Commentary for I Samuel 17:15
וְדָוִ֛ד הֹלֵ֥ךְ וָשָׁ֖ב מֵעַ֣ל שָׁא֑וּל לִרְע֛וֹת אֶת־צֹ֥אן אָבִ֖יו בֵּֽית־לָֽחֶם׃
Now David went to and fro from Saul to feed his father’s sheep at Beth-lehem.—
Rashi on I Samuel
Dovid would go. Would always go back and forth from Shaul to his father's house.8Dovid was not permanently assigned to be with Shaul. Dovid played music for Shaul when the evil spirit rested upon him. At all other times he would return home to tend his father’s sheep.
