What is happening here?
While Saul hunts him, David hears that the Philistines are attacking Keilah. After inquiring of the LORD, he rescues the city, but God then reveals that Keilah’s men would surrender David to Saul if he remained. David escapes with his followers, receives encouragement from Jonathan in the wilderness, is betrayed by the Ziphites, and narrowly avoids Saul when a Philistine invasion forces Saul to break off the pursuit.
