2 Samuel 17:22 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 17:22

Then David arose, and all the people that [were] with him, and
passed over Jordan
Taking the advice of Hushai:

by the morning light there lacked not one of them that was not gone
over Jordan;
they travelled all night, and before it was morning they had all passed the river in boats, or through the fords, and not one was lost in the passage, nor any deserted, see ( John 17:12 ) ; and now perhaps David penned the forty second and forty third psalms, ( Psalms 42:1-43:5 ) .

2 Samuel 17:22 In-Context

20 When Absalom’s servants came to the woman at the house, they asked, “Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?” “They have crossed over the brook,” she replied. The men searched but did not find them, so they returned to Jerusalem.

21 After the men had gone, Ahimaaz and Jonathan climbed up out of the well and went to inform King David, saying, “Get up and cross over the river at once, for Ahithophel has given this advice against you.”

22 So David and all the people with him got up and crossed the Jordan. By daybreak, there was no one left who had not crossed the Jordan.

23 When Ahithophel saw that his advice had not been followed, he saddled his donkey and set out for his house in his hometown. He put his affairs in order and hanged himself. So he died and was buried in his father’s tomb.

24 Then David went to Mahanaim, and Absalom crossed the Jordan with all the men of Israel.
