1Sa 22:1, DAVID THEREFORE DEPARTED FROM THERE AND ESCAPED TO THE CAVE OF ADULLAM. So when his brothers and all his father’s house heard it, they went down there to him.
David escaped the Philistines and went to the cave of Adullam. This was David’s refuge because there was no place for him to go! ADULLAM MEANS REFUGE THIS IS THE PLACED WHERE HE WROTE PSALM 142!
