2 Samuel 13:14 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 13:14

Howbeit, he would not hearken unto her voice
His lust was so inflamed and enraged, that he could not attend to any arguments, though ever so forcible, that were offered to him:

but being stronger than she, forced her, and lay with her;
whether she cried out or not, as the law directs in such cases, ( Deuteronomy 22:25-27 ) ; is not said; she might, and nobody hear her and come to her assistance; or she might not choose to expose her brother to his servants.

2 Samuel 13:14 In-Context

12 She answered him, "No, my brother, do not force me; for such a thing is not done in Israel; do not do anything so vile!

13 As for me, where could I carry my shame? And as for you, you would be as one of the scoundrels in Israel. Now therefore, I beg you, speak to the king; for he will not withhold me from you."

14 But he would not listen to her; and being stronger than she, he forced her and lay with her.

15 Then Amnon was seized with a very great loathing for her; indeed, his loathing was even greater than the lust he had felt for her. Amnon said to her, "Get out!"

16 But she said to him, "No, my brother; for this wrong in sending me away is greater than the other that you did to me." But he would not listen to her.
