2 Samuel 19:11 - Forerunner Commentary

2 Samuel 19:11

David Returns to Jerusalem

9 Now all the people were in a dispute throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “The king saved us from the hand of our ^aenemies, he delivered us from the hand of the ^bPhilistines, and now he has ^cfled from the land because of Absalom.

10 But Absalom, whom we anointed over us, has died in battle. Now therefore, why do you say nothing about bringing back the king?”

11 So King David sent to ^aZadok and Abiathar the priests, saying, “Speak to the elders of Judah, saying, ‘Why are you the last to bring the king back to his house, since the words of all Israel have come to the king, to his very house?

12 You are my brethren, you are ^amy bone and my flesh. Why then are you the last to bring back the king?’

13 ^aAnd say to Amasa, ‘Are you not my bone and my flesh? ^bGod do so to me, and more also, if you are not commander of the army before me¹ continually in place of Joab.’ ”
