<p> [[Doeg]] (''Dô'Eg'' ), ''Fearful.'' An Edomite, the chief of Saul's herdsmen, "detained before the Lord," probably by a vow, or because it was the sabbath, when David fled to Nob. 1 Samuel 21:7. Doeg afterwards falsely accused Abimelech, the high priest, to Saul; and, when none of the king's guard would execute the ferocious sentence to slay the priests of the Lord, he fell upon them and killed 80 persons, sacking also their city. 1 Samuel 22:9-19; Psalms 52:1-9, title. </p> | <p> [[Doeg]] ( ''Dô'Eg'' ), ''Fearful.''

<p> '''''dō´eg''''' ( דּואג , דּאג , <i> '''''dō'''''' </i> - <i> '''''ēgh''''' </i> "anxious," "cared for"): "The Edomite," a servant of Saul, who watched David's intercourse with the priest Ahimelech, then denounced the priest to the king, and later executed his command to slay the priests at Nob. The position he held is described as that of "the mightiest" of Samuel's herdsmen ( 1 Samuel 21:7 margin). [[Septuagint]] reads: "tending the mules." Rabbinical legends speak of him as the greatest scholar of his time. The traditional title of Psalm 52:1-9 associates the composition of that Psalms with the events that led to the slaying of the priests ( 1 Samuel 21:7; 1 Samuel 22:9 , 1 Samuel 22:18 , 1 Samuel 22:22 ). </p> | <p> ''''' dō´eg ''''' ( דּואג , דּאג , <i> ''''' dō' ''''' </i> - <i> ''''' ēgh ''''' </i> "anxious," "cared for"): "The Edomite," a servant of Saul, who watched David's intercourse with the priest Ahimelech, then denounced the priest to the king, and later executed his command to slay the priests at Nob.
