“And it came to pass after this, that David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go up into any of the cities of Judah? And the Lord said unto him, Go up. And David said, Whither shall I go up? And he said, Unto Hebron.”
David inquired of the LORD — After Saul's death, David seeks divine guidance through priestly consultation. The question asks whether David should go to Judah, and the LORD's answer grants explicit permission. David, anointed but long denied his throne, now claims his portion in Israel. The move from Philistine territory to Hebron marks complete transition from exile to kingship.
