2 Samuel 17:22 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 17:22

Then David arose, and all the people that [were] with him, and
passed over Jordan
Taking the advice of Hushai:

by the morning light there lacked not one of them that was not gone
over Jordan;
they travelled all night, and before it was morning they had all passed the river in boats, or through the fords, and not one was lost in the passage, nor any deserted, see ( John 17:12 ) ; and now perhaps David penned the forty second and forty third psalms, ( Psalms 42:1-43:5 ) .

2 Samuel 17:22 In-Context

20 And when Absalom's servants came to the woman at the house, they said, "Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?" So the woman said to them, "They have gone over the water brook." And when they had searched and could not find them, they returned to Jerusalem.
21 Now it came to pass, after they had departed, that they came up out of the well and went and told King David, and said to David, "Arise and cross over the water quickly. For thus has Ahithophel advised against you."
22 So David and all the people who were with him arose and crossed over the Jordan. By morning light not one of them was left who had not gone over the Jordan.
23 Now when Ahithophel saw that his advice was not followed, he saddled a donkey, and arose and went home to his house, to his city. Then he put his household in order, and hanged himself, and died; and he was buried in his father's tomb.
24 Then David went to Mahanaim. And Absalom crossed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
