After David’s song ends (v. 7), the author gives a list of the mighty men of David along with some of their stories. Valiant (mighty) comes from the same Hebrew word as virtue (Ruth 3:11; Proverbs 31:10). It expresses something about the kind of warrior a certain man was, just as it expresses the character of the woman Ruth when it is translated “virtuous.” Let us be valiant men and virtuous women in the army of the Lord today (Ephesians 6:10-20).
