Shmuel Bais 3:10 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 3:10

To translate the kingdom from the house of Saul
Which was what the Lord had sworn to do, ( 1 Samuel 15:28 1 Samuel 15:29 ) ; and which Abner now threatens to do, insolently taking that to himself which belonged to the Lord, and as if he could not do it without him:

and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah;
over the one as well as over the other; for it was set over Judah already:

from Dan even unto Beersheba;
which were the utmost borders of the land of Israel, from north to south, and so includes the whole.

Shmuel Bais 3:10 In-Context

8 Then was Avner very angry at the devarim of Ishboshet, and said, Am I Yehudah’s rosh kelev? Today do I show chesed unto the Bais Sha’ul avicha, to his brethren, and to his friends, and have not delivered thee into the yad Dovid, and then thou chargest me today with an avon concerning this isha?

9 So do Elohim to Avner, and more also! As Hashem hath sworn to Dovid, even so I do for him [Dovid];

10 To transfer the Mamlachah from the Bais Sha’ul, and to set up the Kisse Dovid over Yisroel and over Yehudah, from Dan even to Beer-Sheva.

11 And he could not answer Avner a davar again, because he feared him.

12 And Avner sent malachim to Dovid on his behalf, saying, Whose is the eretz? Saying also, Cut thy brit with me, and, hinei, my yad shall be with thee, to bring about kol Yisroel unto thee.
