Charles Ellicott Commentary 1 Samuel 17:44

"And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto the birds of the heavens, and to the beasts of the field." — 1 Samuel 17:44 (ASV)

Come to me. —In similar terms Hector addresses Ajax—

“And you imperious! if your madness waits
The lance of Hector, you shall meet your fate.
That giant corpse, extended on the shore,
Shall largely feed the birds with fat and gore.”—

Iliad, xiii. 1053.
