2 Samuel 13:1 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 13:1

And it came to pass after this
After the sin of David with Bathsheba, his repentance for it, and pardon of it, and the birth of Solomon as a token of reconciliation; yet after all this the divine threatenings must take place; they had begun already in the death of the child begotten in adultery, and others here follow:

that Absalom the son of David had a fair sister, whose name [was]
Tamar;
she was his sister both by father and mother's side; the mother o, f them was Maacah, the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur; she was a very comely person, her name signifies a palm tree:

and Amnon the son of David loved her;
not in an honourable way, to make her his wife, but in a lustful manner, to make an harlot of her; he was David's eldest son by Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, ( 2 Samuel 3:2 ) .

2 Samuel 13:1 In-Context

1 Ora, Absalão, filho de Davi, tinha uma irmã formosa, cujo nome era Tamar; e sucedeu depois de algum tempo que Amnom, filho de Davi enamorou-se dela.
2 E angustiou-se Amnom, até adoecer, por amar, sua irmã; pois era virgem, e parecia impossível a Amnom fazer coisa alguma com ela.
3 Tinha, porém, Amnom um amigo, cujo nome era Jonadabe, filho de Siméia, irmão de Davi; e era Jonadabe homem mui sagaz.
4 Este lhe perguntou: Por que tu de dia para dia tanto emagreces, ó filho do rei? não mo dirás a mim? Então lhe respondeu Amnom: Amo a Tamar, irmã de Absalão, meu irmao.
5 Tornou-lhe Jonadabe: Deita-te na tua cama, e finge-te doente; e quando teu pai te vier visitar, dize-lhe: Peço-te que minha irmã Tamar venha dar-me de comer, preparando a comida diante dos meus olhos, para que eu veja e coma da sua mão.
