2 Samuel 14:29 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 14:29

Therefore Absalom sent for Joab, to have sent him to the king,
&c.] To introduce him into his presence, being uneasy to be thus confined at his own house, and not suffered to come to court:

but he would not come to him;
knowing the king's mind, and being unwilling to disoblige him by a troublesome solicitation:

and when he sent again the second time, he would not come;
knowing his business with him; and perhaps between the first time of his sending and this he had sounded the king about it, and found it was not agreeable to him to admit him to access to him as yet.

28 Absal贸n residi贸 dos a帽os completos en Jerusal茅n sin ver el rostro del rey.

30 Dijo, pues, a sus siervos: Mirad, el campo de Joab est谩 junto al m铆o, y all铆 tiene cebada; id y prendedle fuego. Y los siervos de Absal贸n prendieron fuego al campo.
31 Entonces Joab se levant贸, vino a la casa de Absal贸n y le dijo: 驴Por qu茅 tus siervos han prendido fuego a mi campo?
