2 Samuel 21:12 - Forerunner Commentary

2 Samuel 21:12

10 Now ^aRizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it for herself on the rock, ^bfrom the beginning of harvest until the late rains poured on them from heaven. And she did not allow the birds of the air to rest on them by day nor the beasts of the field by night.

11 And David was told what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.

12 Then David went and took the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son, from the men of ^aJabesh Gilead who had stolen them from the street of¹ Beth Shan, where the ^bPhilistines had hung them up, after the Philistines had struck down Saul in Gilboa.

13 So he brought up the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from there; and they gathered the bones of those who had been hanged.

14 They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in ^aZelah, in the tomb of Kish his father. So they performed all that the king commanded. And after that ^bGod heeded the prayer for the land.
