2 Samuel 2:15 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 2:15

Then there arose and went over by number twelve of Benjamin,
&c.] Whom Abner had picked out of that tribe, being his own, and whom he knew to be stout and courageous men, and closely attached to him. It seems by this as if Abner's men,

[which pertained to] Ishbosheth, the son of Saul,
passed over the pool of Gibeon unto Joab's men; so forward were they to engage in this duel, and it makes it still more appear that they were the aggressors:

and twelve of the servants of David;
of his army under Joab, whom Joab either selected, or they, offered themselves as willing to engage with the twelve that were come over.

2 Samuel 2:15 In-Context

13 Saíram também Joabe, filho de Zeruia, e os servos de Davi, e se encontraram com eles perto do tanque de Gibeão; e pararam uns de um lado do tanque, e os outros do outro lado.
14 Então disse Abner a Joabe: Levantem-se os mancebos, e se batam diante de nós. Respondeu Joabe: Levantem-se.
15 Levantaram-se, pois, e passaram, em número de doze por Benjamim e por Isbosete, filho de Saul, e doze dos servos de Davi.
16 E cada um lançou mão da cabeça de seu contendor, e meteu-lhe a espada pela ilharga; assim caíram juntos; pelo que se chamou �quele lugar, que está junto a Gibeão, Helcate-Hazurim.
17 Seguiu-se naquele dia uma crua peleja; e Abner e os homens de Israel foram derrotados diante dos servos de Davi.
