2 Samuel 2:12 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 2:12

And Abner the son of Ner
Who was before captain of Saul's host, and now of Ishbosheth's:

and the servants of Ishbosheth the son of Saul;
who seem to be not only his domestic servants, that waited upon him, or his courtiers, but his whole army by what follows:

went out from Mahanaim to Gibeon;
came from the city on the other side Jordan, where perhaps they had been two years past, concerting schemes to bring all Israel under the government of Ishbosheth; in which they had succeeded, only Judah stood out with David; and in order to reduce that tribe, they passed over Jordan and came to Gibeon, a city in Benjamin. See ( Joshua 18:25 ) .

2 Samuel 2:12 In-Context

10 Is-Bosete, filho de Saul, tinha quarenta anos de idade quando começou a reinar em Israel, e reinou dois anos. Entretanto, a tribo de Judá seguia Davi,

11 que a governou em Hebrom por sete anos e seis meses.

12 Abner, filho de Ner, e os soldados de Is-Bosete, filho de Saul, partiram de Maanaim e marcharam para Gibeom.

13 Joabe, filho de Zeruia, e os soldados de Davi foram ao encontro deles no açude de Gibeom. Um grupo posicionou-se num lado do açude; o outro grupo, no lado oposto.

14 Então Abner disse a Joabe: “Vamos fazer alguns soldados lutarem diante de nós”.Joabe respondeu: “De acordo”.
