2 Samuel 19:18 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 19:18

And there went over a ferry boat to carry over the king's
household
His wives and children, who could not so well ford the river on foot: some will have this to be a bridge of boats, a pontoon; and Abarbinel thinks it might be a company of men, who carried the women and children on their shoulders, one after another:

and to do what he thought good;
to carry over whatever else the king pleased, besides his family:

and Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king, as he was come
over Jordan;
or just as he was about to come over, when he came to Jordan to take the boat in order to come over; for he went over Jordan to meet him, and therefore would take the first opportunity of coming into his presence, and fall down before him, and make his submission to him.

2 Samuel 19:18 In-Context

16 Entonces Simei, hijo de Gera, el benjamita que era de Bahurim, se dio prisa y descendió con los hombres de Judá al encuentro del rey David.
17 Con él había mil hombres de Benjamín, y Siba, siervo de la casa de Saúl, y con él sus quince hijos y sus veinte siervos; y se apresuraron a pasar el Jordán delante del rey.
18 Y seguían cruzando el vado para pasar a toda la casa del rey, y hacer lo que le pareciera bien. Y Simei, hijo de Gera, se postró ante el rey cuando éste iba a pasar el Jordán.
19 Y dijo al rey: No me considere culpable mi señor, ni te acuerdes del mal que tu siervo hizo el día en que mi señor el rey salió de Jerusalén; que el rey no lo guarde en su corazón.
20 Pues yo tu siervo reconozco que he pecado; por tanto, he aquí que hoy he venido, el primero de toda la casa de José, para descender al encuentro de mi señor el rey.
