2 Samuel 20:7 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 20:7

And there went out after him Joab's men
Who though he was removed from his post as general, yet might still have the command of a regiment:

and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites;
over whom Benaiah was, ( 2 Samuel 20:23 ) ; these attended David in his flight, and had now returned with him, ( 2 Samuel 15:18 ) ;

and all the mighty men;
the military men that were at Jerusalem as many as could be spared:

and they went out of Jerusalem to pursue after Sheba the son of Bichri;
with Abishai at the head of them; Josephus F17 says there were six hundred, besides the soldiers at Jerusalem that went on this pursuit.

2 Samuel 20:7 In-Context

5 Amasá salió para movilizar a las tropas, pero no cumplió con el plazo.
6 Por eso David le dijo a Abisay: «Ahora Sabá hijo de Bicrí va a perjudicarnos más que Absalón. Así que hazte cargo de la guardia real, y sal a perseguirlo, no sea que llegue a alguna ciudad fortificada y se nos escape».
7 Entonces los soldados de Joab, junto con los quereteos, los peleteos y todos los oficiales, bajo el mando de Abisay salieron de Jerusalén para perseguir a Sabá hijo de Bicrí.
8 Al llegar a la gran roca que está en Gabaón, Amasá les salió al encuentro. Joab tenía su uniforme ajustado con un cinturón, y ceñida al muslo llevaba una daga envainada. Pero al caminar, la daga se le cayó.
9 Con la mano derecha, Joab tomó a Amasá por la barba para besarlo, mientras le preguntaba: «¿Cómo estás, hermano?»
