1 Kings 2:37 - Forerunner Commentary

1 Kings 2:37

35 The king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his place over the army, and the king put ^aZadok the priest in the place of ^bAbiathar.

Shimei Executed

36 Then the king sent and called for ^aShimei, and said to him, “Build yourself a house in Jerusalem and dwell there, and do not go out from there anywhere.

37 For it shall be, on the day you go out and cross ^athe Brook Kidron, know for certain you shall surely die; ^byour blood shall be on your own head.”

38 And Shimei said to the king, “The saying is good. As my lord the king has said, so your servant will do.” So Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.

39 Now it happened at the end of three years, that two slaves of Shimei ran away to ^aAchish the son of Maachah, king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying, “Look, your slaves are in Gath!”
