2 Samuel 23:10

Listen to 2 Samuel 23:10
10 El se levantó e hirió a los filisteos hasta que su mano se cansó y quedó pegada a la espada; aquel día el SEÑOR concedió una gran victoria; el pueblo volvió en pos de él, pero sólo para despojar a los muertos.

2 Samuel 23:10 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 23:10

He arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary,
&c.] He rose up when the Israelites fled, and stood his ground alone, and fought with the Philistines, and smote them with his sword, until his hand was weary with smiting:

and his hand clave unto the sword;
which was contracted by holding it so long, and grasping it so hard, that it could not easily be got out of it; or through the quantity of blood which ran upon his hand, as it was shed, so Josephus F20; and which being congealed, and dried, caused his hand to stick to the hilt of his sword, so that they were, as it were, glued together by it; or the sense may be only, that though weary, he did not drop his sword, but held it fast till he had destroyed the enemy:

and the Lord wrought a great victory that day;
for to him it must be ascribed, and not to the strength and valour of the man:

and the people returned after him only to spoil;
they that fled, when they saw what a victory was obtained by him, returned and came after him; not to help him in smiting, but to spoil those that were slain, and strip them of what they had.

2 Samuel 23:10 In-Context

8 Estos son los nombres de los valientes que tenía David: Joseb-basebet tacmonita, principal de los capitanes; éste era llamado Adino eznita, por los ochocientos que mató una vez;
9 y después de él, Eleazar, hijo de Dodo ahohíta, uno de los tres valientes que estaban con David cuando desafiaron a los filisteos que se habían reunido allí para la batalla y se habían retirado los hombres de Israel.
10 El se levantó e hirió a los filisteos hasta que su mano se cansó y quedó pegada a la espada; aquel día el SEÑOR concedió una gran victoria; el pueblo volvió en pos de él, pero sólo para despojar a los muertos.
11 Después de él, fue Sama, hijo de Age ararita. Los filisteos se habían concentrado en tropa donde había un terreno lleno de lentejas, y el pueblo había huido de los filisteos.
12 Pero él se puso en medio del terreno, lo defendió e hirió a los filisteos; y el SEÑOR concedió una gran victoria.
