민수기 7:60의 주석

אבידן בן גדעוני. This is an allusion to King Saul who was referred to by David as אבי, "my father" (compare Samuel I 24,11) when David had cut off Saul's mantle instead of killing him. Saul had deserved to be killed seeing that G'd had already judged him, דן, and told him he had forfeited his crown (Samuel I 15). There is also an allusion in this name to Mordechai who destroyed the seed of Amalek. The word בן גדעוני means that he (David) was the one on whose account Saul's kingdom had been taken from him.
