JOAB CAUSES THE KING TO CEASE MOURNING. (II Samuel 19:1-8)
the people gat them by stealth . . . to the city—The rumor of the king's disconsolate condition spread a universal and unseasonable gloom. His troops, instead of being welcomed back (as a victorious army always was) with music and other demonstrations of public joy, slunk secretly and silently into the city, as if ashamed after the commission of some crime.
