1 Rois 2:31 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 2:31

And the king said unto him, do as he hath said, and fall upon
him, and bury him
Let him die where he is, slay him upon the spot, and then bury him; not by the altar, but in his own sepulchre, as later related, that in, give orders to bury him there; for Benaiah being a priest, could not be concerned in the burial of him, and besides it was below the dignity of his office:

((See Gill on 1 Chronicles 27:2) where Gill advances resaons for Benaiah not being a priest. Editor.)

that thou mayest take away the innocent blood, which Joab shed, from
me, and from the house of my father;
which had been too long connived at, and had called for vengeance; and now here was a proper opportunity upon fresh sins committed to avenge it, and so remove the guilt, which lay upon him and his father's house, for not inflicting deserved punishment on him for it.

1 Rois 2:31 In-Context

29 On annonça au roi Salomon que Joab s'était réfugié vers la tente de l'Eternel, et qu'il était auprÚs de l'autel. Et Salomon envoya Benaja, fils de Jehojada, en lui disant: Va, frappe-le.
30 Benaja arriva à la tente de l'Eternel, et dit à Joab: Sors! c'est le roi qui l'ordonne. Mais il répondit: Non! je veux mourir ici. Benaja rapporta la chose au roi, en disant: C'est ainsi qu'a parlé Joab, et c'est ainsi qu'il m'a répondu.
31 Le roi dit à Benaja: Fais comme il a dit, frappe-le, et enterre-le; tu Îteras ainsi de dessus moi et de dessus la maison de mon pÚre le sang que Joab a répandu sans cause.
32 L'Eternel fera retomber son sang sur sa tĂȘte, parce qu'il a frappĂ© deux hommes plus justes et meilleurs que lui et les a tuĂ©s par l'Ă©pĂ©e, sans que mon pĂšre David le sĂ»t: Abner, fils de Ner, chef de l'armĂ©e d'IsraĂ«l, et Amasa, fils de JĂ©ther, chef de l'armĂ©e de Juda.
33 Leur sang retombera sur la tĂȘte de Joab et sur la tĂȘte de ses descendants Ă  perpĂ©tuitĂ©; mais il y aura paix Ă  toujours, de par l'Eternel, pour David, pour sa postĂ©ritĂ©, pour sa maison et pour son trĂŽne.
