2 Samuel 17:27 - Forerunner Commentary

2 Samuel 17:27

25 And Absalom made ^aAmasa captain of the army instead of Joab. This Amasa was the son of a man whose name was¹ Jithra, an Israelite, who had gone in to ^bAbigail the daughter of Nahash, sister of Zeruiah, Joab’s mother.

26 So Israel and Absalom encamped in the land of Gilead.

27 Now it happened, when David had come to Mahanaim, that ^aShobi the son of Nahash from Rabbah of the people of Ammon, ^bMachir the son of Ammiel from Lo Debar, and ^cBarzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim,

28 brought beds and basins, earthen vessels and wheat, barley and flour, parched grain and beans, lentils and parched seeds,

29 honey and curds, sheep and cheese of the herd, for David and the people who were with him to eat. For they said, “The people are hungry and weary and thirsty ^ain the wilderness.”
