Sāmǔĕrjìxià 5:4 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 5:4

David [was] thirty years old when he began reign
Over Judah, which was the age of his antitype Christ, when he entered upon his public ministry, ( Luke 3:23 ) ;

[and] he reigned forty years;
and six months, as appears by ( 2 Samuel 5:5 ) ; but the months are not mentioned, only the round number of years given: two reasons the Jews ^F1 give for this; the one, that he fled six months from Absalom; the other is, that he was ill in Hebron so long, and therefore are not reckoned.
