2 Samuel 14:27 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 14:27

And unto Absalom there were born three sons
Who very probably died young; and the rather it may be thought so, since their names are not given, and more especially since it is said that Absalom had no sons, and therefore erected a pillar to keep up the remembrance of his name; unless it can be thought that that was set up before he had any sons, which is not so likely; see ( 2 Samuel 18:18 ) ;

and one daughter, whose name [was] Tamar;
and whom he named after his sister Tamar, who was ravished by Amnon; the Septuagint version in some copies adds,

``and she became the wife of Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, and bore to him Abia;''

and so says Josephus ^F2; see ( 1 Kings 15:22 ) ( 2 Chronicles 11:20 ) ;

she was a woman of a fair countenance;
as was her aunt, after whom she was named, ( 2 Samuel 13:1 ) ; by this it appears that she lived to a woman's estate, though the sons of Absalom died young.

2 Samuel 14:27 In-Context

25 Absalón se reconcilia con David
Absalón era elogiado como el hombre más apuesto de todo Israel. De pies a cabeza era perfecto.

26 Se cortaba el cabello una vez al año, y lo hacía sólo porque era muy pesado. ¡El peso de su cabello era de más de dos kilos!

27 Tenía tres hijos y una hija. Su hija se llamaba Tamar, y era muy hermosa.

28 Absalón vivió dos años en Jerusalén, pero nunca pudo ver al rey.

29 Así que mandó llamar a Joab para pedirle que intercediera por él, pero Joab se negó a ir. Entonces Absalón volvió a enviar por él una segunda vez, pero de nuevo Joab se negó.
