2 Samuel 14:20 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 14:20

To fetch about this form of speech hath thy servant Joab done
this thing
Feigned a story in such form and manner as had been delivered to the king, that it might be accommodated and applied to the case of Absalom, and to transfer it in a figure to the king, to use the apostle's phrase, ( 1 Corinthians 4:8 ) ;

and my lord [is] wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God;
as not only to understand the design of this fable or parable, but of such sagacity and penetration as to find out the author of it; and even

to know all [things] that [are] in the earth;
either in the whole world, or rather in the land of Israel; and it is to be understood not of all actions natural and moral done by men in it, which would be to ascribe omniscience to him; but of all political things, all things respecting civil government; that he had such a spirit of discerning of men and things, that nothing could be said or done, or scheme formed, but he got intelligence of it, and insight into it; and which was carrying the compliment to a great height.

2 Samuel 14:20 In-Context

18 Então respondeu o rei � mulher: Peço-te que não me encubras o que eu te perguntar. Tornou a mulher: Fale agora o rei meu senhor.
19 Perguntou, pois, o rei: Não é verdade que a mão de Joabe está contigo em tudo isso? Respondeu a mulher: Vive a tua alma, ó rei meu senhor, que ninguém se poderá desviar, nem para a direita nem para a esquerda, de tudo quanto diz o rei meu senhor; porque Joabe, teu servo, é quem me deu ordem, e foi ele que pôs na boca da tua serva todas estas palavras;
20 para mudar a feição do negócio é que Joabe, teu servo, fez isso. Sábio, porém, é meu senhor, conforme a sabedoria do anjo de Deus, para entender tudo o que há na terra.
21 Então o rei disse a Joabe: Eis que faço o que pedes; vai, pois, e faze voltar o mancebo Absalão.
22 Então Joabe se prostrou com o rosto em terra e, fazendo uma reverência, abençoou o rei; e disse Joabe: Hoje conhece o teu servo que achei graça aos teus olhos, ó rei meu senhor, porque o rei fez segundo a palavra do teu servo.
