2 Samuel 18:4 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 18:4

And the king said unto them, what seemeth you best I will do,
&c.] Which was an instance of great condescension in him; and it was his wisdom and prudence to yield to them at such a time as this, and especially as their sentiments were founded on affection and loyalty to him:

and the king stood by the gate side;
of the city of Mahanaim:

and all the people came out by hundreds, and by thousands;
and passed by him, to whom no doubt he gave his blessing and best wishes; and, as Abarbinel thinks, now it was he composed and said the twentieth psalm, "The Lord hear thee in the day of trouble" ( Psalms 20:1-9 ) .

2 Samuel 18:4 In-Context

2 E Davi enviou o exército, um terço sob o mando de Joabe, outro terço sob o mando de Abisai, filho de Zeruia, irmão de Joabe, e outro terço sob o mando de Itai, o giteu. E disse o rei ao povo: Eu também sairei convosco.
3 Mas o povo respondeu: Não sairás; porque se fugirmos, eles não se importarão conosco; nem se importarão conosco ainda que morra metade de nós; porque tu vales por dez mil tais como nós. Melhor será que da cidade nos mandes socorro.
4 Respondeu-lhes o rei: Farei o que vos parecer bem. E o rei se pĂ´s ao lado da porta, e todo o povo saiu em centenas e em milhares.
5 E o rei deu ordem a Joabe, a Abisai e a Itai, dizendo: Tratai brandamente, por amor de mim, o mancebo AbsalĂŁo. E todo o povo ouviu quando o rei deu ordem a todos os chefes acerca de AbsalĂŁo.
6 Assim saiu o povo a campo contra Israel; e deu-se a batalha no bosque de Efraim.
