ABSALOM FLEES TO TALMAI. (II Samuel 13:37-39)
Absalom fled, and went to Talmai—The law as to premeditated murder (Numbers 35:21) gave him no hope of remaining with impunity in his own country. The cities of refuge could afford him no sanctuary, and he was compelled to leave the kingdom, taking refuge at the court of Geshur, with his maternal grandfather, who would, doubtless, approve of his conduct.
