2 Samuel 23:7 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 23:7

But the man [that] shall touch them must be fenced with iron
and the staff of a spear
To remove these thorns, or sons of Belial, out of the way, or to defend himself against them; or weapons of war must be made use of to conquer and destroy them, according to the sense of Ben Gersom, and which De Dieu follows; a man that meddles with them must expect to be as much hurt and wounded by them, all over the body, as if not only the point or iron head of a spear, but the wood or handle of the spear, were thrust up in him; but the former sense seems best:

and they shall be utterly burnt with fire in the [same] place:
where the thorns grew, or whither they are removed, or are sitting; where persons are sitting to warm themselves by them: and this may be understood of the destruction of wicked rulers, when their kingdom is taken from them, and they are consumed root and branch; and was true not only of Saul, and his posterity, as some apply it, and of Jeroboam, and those like to him, as the above Jewish writer; but of the wicked Jews, and their rulers, those sons of Belial, who rejected the yoke of Christ, and would not have him to rule over them; to whom the Lord sent the Roman armies fenced with swords and spears, and burnt their city, and destroyed them in the same place; and may take in antichrist, and antichristian states, those sons of Belial, of the wicked (anomov) , and lawless one, the son of perdition, whose city, Rome, shall be burnt with fire; and even all wicked men, at the great day of judgment, to which the Targum refers these words; when they, whose end, like thorns, is to be burnt, will be cast into the lake which burns with fire and brimstone.

5 “A minha dinastia está de bem com Deus.Ele fez uma aliança eterna comigo,firmada e garantida em todos os aspectos.Certamente me fará prosperar em tudoe me concederá tudo quanto eu desejo.

6 Mas os perversos serão lançados for a como espinhos,que não se ajuntam com as mãos;

7 quem quer tocá-los usa uma ferramentaou o cabo de madeira da lança.Os espinhos serão totalmente queimados onde estiverem”.

8 Estes são os nomes dos principais guerreiros de Davi:Jabesão, um tacmonita, chefe dos três guerreiros principais; numa ocasião, com uma lança, enfrentou oitocentos homens numa mesma batalha e os matou.

9 Depois dele, Eleazar, filho do aoíta Dodô. Ele era um dos três principais guerreiros e esteve com Davi quando os filisteus se reuniram em Pas-Damim para a batalha. Os israelitas recuaram,
