Nabal say this as a direct insult to David knowing who he is, but refusing to recognize him. Nabal deepens his insult of David, saying that David is simply a rebellious servant.

1. Because his taunting is insulting to God army and his people. His taunting shows thst Goliath has no fear of what God can do and the capabilities of His powers. 2. Because he was convinced his shepherd brother had the courage to stand up to Goliath, while his warrier brother did nothing at all to defend his God and his people. 3.
