John Gill Commentary 1 Samuel 25:5

"And David sent ten young men, and David said unto the young men, Get you up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name:" — 1 Samuel 25:5 (ASV)

And David sent out ten young men
Such persons, and such a number of them, he sent to show honour and reverence to Nabal:

and David said, to the young men, get you up to Carmel ;
which lay higher than the wilderness, in which he was:

and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name ;
ask him of his peace and welfare, as the Targum; wish all health and happiness in my name, present my service and best respects to him.
