1 Reis 1:8 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 1:8

But Zadok the priest
Who bid fair to be the high priest on Solomon's coming to the throne as he was:

and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada;
who was near David's person, and over his bodyguards, the Cherethites and Pelethites:

and Nathan the prophet;
a very great intimate of David's, and his seer, whom he consulted on all occasions:

and Shimei;
who, according to Abarbinel, was Shimei the son of Gera, who had cursed David, and was afraid of entering into the conspiracy, lest he should be involved in trouble again: though some think this may be that Shimei, one of Solomon's twelve officers, as after constituted, ( 1 Kings 4:18 ) ;

and Rei;
whom the same writer takes to be Hushai the Archite, David's friend:

and the mighty men which [belonged] to David;
that were about his person, his guards, the Cherethites and Pelethites:

were not with Adonijah;
they did not join him, and indeed were not invited by him.

1 Reis 1:8 In-Context

6 Ora, nunca seu pai o tinha contrariado, dizendo: Por que fizeste assim? Além disso, era ele muito formoso de parecer; e era mais moço do que Absalão.

7 E teve entendimento com Joabe, filho de Zeruia, e com o sacerdote Abiatar, os quais aderiram a ele e o ajudavam.

8 Mas Zadoque, o sacerdote, e Benaías, filho de Jeoiada, e Natã, o profeta, e Simei, e Rei, e os valentes que Davi tinha, não eram por Adonias.

9 Adonias matou ovelhas, bois e animais cevados, junto � pedra de Zoelete, que está perto de En-Rogel; e convidou a todos os seus irmãos, os filhos do rei, e a todos os homens de Judá, servos do rei;

10 porém a Natã, o profeta, e a Benaías, e aos valentes, e a Salomão, seu irmão, não os convidou.
