Barnes' Notes
Thy master' s son - Meaning Saul' s grandson II Samuel 9:6. David asks the question, evidently hurt at the apparent ingratitude of Mephibosheth. It is impossible to say whether Mephibosheth was quite guiltless or not. If Ps. 116 was composed by David, and after the quelling of Absalom' s rebellion, II Samuel 16:11 may contain David' s confession of his present hasty judgment II Samuel 16:4 in the matter.
