2 Samuel 18:9 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 18:9

And Absalom met the servants of David
When his army was routed, he was in such a fright that he knew not which way to flee, and instead of flying from David's men, he fled in the way of them; but none of them attempted to slay him, nor even to stop him, but let him pass by them, knowing David's charge concerning him:

and Absalom rode upon a mule;
as was common for great personages to do in those days, ( 2 Samuel 13:29 ) ;

and the mule went under the thick boughs of a great oak;
and running full speed, Absalom could not guide him, nor stop, nor divert him from going under it:

and his head caught hold of the oak;
either the hair of his head was twisted and entangled in the thick boughs of the oak; or rather his head was jammed into a forked branch of the oak:

and he was taken up between the heaven and the earth;
hung in the air between both, as unworthy to live in either:

and the mule that [was] under him went away;
and left him hanging in the oak.

2 Samuel 18:9 In-Context

7 onde o exército de Israel foi derrotado pelos soldados de Davi. Houve grande matança naquele dia, elevando-se o número de mortos a vinte mil.
8 A batalha espalhou-se por toda a região e, naquele dia, a floresta matou mais que a espada.
9 Durante a batalha, Absalão, montado em sua mula, encontrou-se com os soldados de Davi. Passando a mula debaixo dos galhos de uma grande árvore, Absalão ficou preso nos galhos pela cabeça. Ficou pendurado entre o céu e a terra, e a mula prosseguiu.
10 Um homem o viu e informou a Joabe: “Acabei de ver Absalão pendurado numa grande árvore”.
11 “Você o viu?”, perguntou Joabe ao homem. “E por que não o matou ali mesmo? Eu teria dado a você dez peças de prata e um cinturão de guerreiro!”
