撒母耳记下 3:33 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 3:33

And the king lamented over Abner
Delivered an elegy or funeral oration, which he had composed on this occasion, as Josephus

---

FOOTNOTES:

F21 suggests: for he had cried and wept before, but now he expressed something as follows:

and said, died Abner as a fool dieth?
the meaning of the interrogation is, he did not; the Targum is

``did Abner die as wicked men die?''

no, he did not; he did not die for any wickedness he had been guilty of; he did not die as a malefactor, whose crime has been charged and proved in open court, and sentence of condemnation pronounced on him righteously for it; but he died without anything being laid to his charge, and much less proved, and without judge or jury; he was murdered in a clandestine, insidious, and deceitful manner; so the word "fool" is often taken in Scripture for a wicked man, especially in the book of Proverbs; the Septuagint version leaves the word untranslated,

``died Abner according to the death of Nabal?''

no; but it could hardly be thought that David would mention the name of any particular person on such an occasion.

31 大 卫 吩 咐 约 押 和 跟 随 他 的 众 人 说 ： 你 们 当 撕 裂 衣 服 ， 腰 束 麻 布 ， 在 押 尼 珥 棺 前 哀 哭 。 大 卫 王 也 跟 在 棺 後 。

32 他 们 将 押 尼 珥 葬 在 希 伯 仑 。 王 在 押 尼 珥 的 墓 旁 放 声 而 哭 ， 众 民 也 都 哭 了 。

33 王 为 押 尼 珥 举 哀 ， 说 ： 押 尼 珥 何 竟 像 愚 顽 人 死 呢 ？

34 你 手 未 曾 捆 绑 ， 脚 未 曾 锁 住 。 你 死 ， 如 人 死 在 罪 孽 之 辈 手 下 一 样 。 於 是 众 民 又 为 押 尼 珥 哀 哭 。

35 日 头 未 落 的 时 候 ， 众 民 来 劝 大 卫 吃 饭 ， 但 大 卫 起 誓 说 ： 我 若 在 日 头 未 落 以 前 吃 饭 ， 或 吃 别 物 ， 愿 　 神 重 重 地 降 罚 与 我 ！
