Rent - Divided; broke or tore apart.

Clarke's 2-samuel 1:2 Bible Commentary

A man came out of the camp - The whole account which this young man gives is a fabrication: in many of the particulars it is grossly self-contradictory. There is no fact in the case but the bringing of the crown, or diadem, and bracelets of Saul; which, as he appears to have been a plunderer of the slain, he found on the field of battle; and he brought them to David, and told the lie of having despatched Saul, merely to ingratiate himself with David.

Wesley's 2-samuel 1:2 Bible Commentary

1:2 Third day - From David's return to Ziklag.With his clothes rent, &c. - As a mourner.
