2 Samuele 18:25 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 18:25

And the watchman cried and told the king
Called with a loud voice from the roof of the watchtower to the king, sitting between the gates, and informed him what he saw:

and the king said, if he [be] alone [there is] tidings in his mouth;
for if the army was routed and fled, and were pursued, there would be more in company, or several running one after another; but being but one, it was highly improbable that he was sent express:

and he came apace, and drew near;
which was another sign of his being a messenger, the haste he made towards the city.

2 Samuele 18:25 In-Context

23 Ed egli disse: Checchè sia, io correrò. E Ioab gli disse: Corri. Ahimaas adunque si mise a correre per la via della pianura, ed avanzò l’Etiopo.
24 Or Davide sedeva fra le due porte; e la guardia ch’era alla veletta salì in sul tetto della porta, in sul muro, ed alzò gli occhi, e riguardò; ed ecco un uomo che correva tutto solo.
25 E la guardia gridò, e lo fece assapere al re. E il re disse: Se egli è solo, egli porta novelle. E colui si andava del continuo accostando.
26 Poi la guardia vide un altro uomo che correva; e gridò al portinaio, e disse: Ecco un altro uomo che corre tutto solo. E il re disse: Anche costui porta novelle.
27 E la guardia disse: Il correr del primo mi pare il correre di Ahimaas, figliuolo di Sadoc. E il re disse: Costui è uomo da bene; egli deve venire per alcuna buona novella.
