2 Samuele 16:15 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 16:15

And Absalom, and all the people, the men of Israel, came to
Jerusalem
At the same time that David and his people came to Bahurim; which, as Josephus F26 says, was a place near to Jerusalem; and, according to Bunting F1, was little more than a mile from it; though elsewhere F2 he makes it three miles; so that had not David made the hasty flight he did, he had fallen into the hands of Absalom:

and Ahithophel with him:
a famous counsellor, and who had been of David's privy council, and chief in it, see ( 2 Samuel 15:12 2 Samuel 15:31 ) and whom David refers to in ( Psalms 55:12-14 ) .

13 Davide e la sua gente continuarono il loro cammino; e Scimei camminava sul fianco del monte, dirimpetto a Davide, e cammin facendo lo malediva, gli tirava de’ sassi e buttava della polvere.
14 Il re e tutta la gente ch’era con lui arrivarono ad Aiefim e quivi ripresero fiato.
15 Or Absalom e tutto il popolo, gli uomini d’Israele, erano entrati in Gerusalemme; ed Ahitofel era con lui.
16 E quando Hushai, l’Arkita, l’amico di Davide, fu giunto presso Absalom, gli disse: "Viva il re! Viva il re!"
17 Ed Absalom disse a Hushai: "È questa dunque l’affezione che hai pel tuo amico? Perché non sei tu andato col tuo amico?"
