Abundant ones are rising upon me.
Great of stature, and great in learning.
Great in stature was Shobach, he was called shobach because he stood as high as a dovecote, he was also called Shophach, because he shed blood. Of such stature were also Goliath, of who it is said, His height was six cubits and a span (Shmuel I - I Samuel 17:4), and Saul of who it is said, From his shoulders and upwards he was higher than any of the people (Shmuel I - I Samuel 9:2).
Great in learning where Doeg and Ahithophel.
Doeg was a chief of the high court, for it is said, Doeg the Edomite, the chief of Saul's shepherds. (Shmuel I - I Samuel 21:8)
And as to Ahithophel, it is written, And the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counselled in those days was as if a man inquired of the word of God.(Shmuel II - II Samuel 16:23).
