Clarke's 1-samuel 16:10 Bible Commentary
Seven of his sons - This certainly was not done publicly; Samuel, Jesse, and his children, must have been in a private apartment, previously to the public feast on the sacrifice; for Samuel says, 1 Samuel 16:11, We will not sit down till he (David) come.
Barnes's 1-samuel 16:10 Bible Commentary
Seven - i. e., including the three who had already passed. It appears that Jesse had eight sons; but in 1 Chronicles 2:13-15, only seven are ascribed to him.
Wesley's 1-samuel 16:10 Bible Commentary
16:10 Seven - There are but seven named, 1 Chronicles 2:13 - 15, because one of them was either born of a concubine: or, died immediately after this time.
