Shmuel Bais 15:27 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 15:27

And the king said unto Zadok the priest, [art not] thou a
seer?
&c.] A prophet, as well as a priest; see ( 1 Samuel 9:9 ) ; or a seeing, knowing, man; one that can penetrate into men and things, and so might be of more service to David at Jerusalem than with him: wherefore he said to him,

return into the city in peace;
to the city of Jerusalem with peace, quietness, and satisfaction of mind; where he doubted not, at least hoped and wished, he would be in safety and prosperity, being one of the Lord's priests:

and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz thy son, and Jonathan the son of
Abiathar;
the one was of the line of Eleazar, and the other of the line of Ithamar.

Shmuel Bais 15:27 In-Context

25 And HaMelech said unto Tzadok, Carry back the Aron HaElohim into the Ir; if I shall find chen (grace) in the eyes of Hashem, He will bring me again, and show me both Him, and His habitation;

26 But if He thus say, I have no delight in thee; hinei, here am I, let Him do to me as seemeth tov unto Him.

27 HaMelech said also unto Tzadok HaKohen, Art not thou the Ro’eh (seer)? Return into the Ir in shalom, and your two banim with you, Achima’atz binecha, and Yonatan Ben Evyatar (Abiathar).

28 See, I will tarry in the fords of the wilderness, until there come davar from you to inform me.

29 Tzadok therefore and Evyatar (Abiathar) carried the Aron HaElohim back to Yerushalayim; and they tarried there.
