yes he was saved by a spider.

In 1 Samuel 23-24, David is hiding in caves because King Saul was trying to kill him. There is a Rabbinical story (midrash) in the Talmud (learing) about about this which says that God used a spider to spin its web over the opening of the cave David was in so that when Saul saw the web he passed by cave because he knew that David could not be in there otherwise he would have broken the web. The spider was like Queen Esther, used for such a time as this. Look for the divine appointments God will use you. :)

Thank you because I have searched the KJV so diligently looking for this. I've heard several preachers speak of this that I knew they had to know it. When I searched the word Talmud, it helped me.

Where in the Bible is the story of the spider web that covered the entrance to a cave?

I believe that this story is about David hiding from King Saul's men, based on Jewish tradition/an Aramaic version of Psalm 57. I certainly remember being told this story at school or Sunday school.I found the following references to it:The rabbins tell a curious and instructive tale concerning this: "God sent a spider to weave her web at the mouth of the cave in which David and his men lay hid. When Saul saw the spider's web over the cave's mouth, he very naturally conjectured that it could neither be the haunt of men nor wild beasts; and therefore went in with confidence to repose."The Targum curiously paraphrases this clause: [from Psalm 57 v2] "Who ordered the spider that wrought the web, on my account, at the mouth of the cave;" applying a later historical fact, which, however, may have had its prototypeKING DAVIDListen to the words of David when he was fleeing from King Saul.Psalm 57:2I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.Notice the words: God that performeth all things for me.The Jewish Aramaic Translation of the Psalms - The Targum - has a note on this verse of the Psalm.David was in the Cave of Adullam.He had fled from King Saul, his remorseless foe and had found shelter in the clefts of the rocks.He cries out in Prayer in his Psalm:Be merciful unto me, O God!King Saul with armed men was close on his heels seeking his life!Would they find him?The Targum tells us that a spider spun its web over the door part of the cave where David was concealed.Seeing the Spider-web King Saul did not enter the cave because he thought that David could not have entered it without breaking the spider's web. Thus David was saved.


What scripture tells about David hiding in a cave from Saul and a spider covers the entrance with a web?

It's not in 1 Samuel anywhere, that is, the story of God having a spider weave a web across a cave entrance. It's an old Hebrew tale.

Where in the bible did a spider web hid david?

There are three Biblical references to spider's webs, all of them in the Old Testament: Job 8:14 His confidence breaks in sunder, and his trust is a spider's web. Job 27:18 The house which he builds is like a spider's web, like a booth which a watchman makes. Isa 59:5 They hatch adders' eggs, they weave the spider's web; he who eats their eggs dies, and from one which is crushed a viper is hatched.
