2 Samuel 12:26 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 12:26

And Joab fought against Rabbah of the children of Ammon
Of his being sent against it, and of his besieging it, we read in ( 2 Samuel 11:1 ) ; but it can hardly be thought that he had been so long besieging it, as that David had two children by Bathsheba; but the account of the finishing of it is placed here, that the story concerning Bathsheba might lie together without any interruption:

and took the royal city;
or that part of it in which the king's palace was, and which, as Abarbinel observes, was without the city, as the palaces of kings now usually are.

2 Samuel 12:26 In-Context

24 Et David consola sa femme Bath-Shéba; et il vint vers elle, et coucha avec elle; et elle enfanta un fils qu'il nomma Salomon.
25 Et l'Éternel l'aima; et il envoya Nathan, le prophète, qui lui donna le nom de Jédidia (aimé de l'Éternel), à cause de l'Éternel.
26 Or Joab faisait la guerre contre Rabba des enfants d'Ammon, et il prit la ville royale.
27 Alors Joab envoya des messagers vers David, pour lui dire: J'ai attaqué Rabba, et même j'ai pris la ville des eaux.
28 Maintenant donc assemble le reste du peuple, et campe contre la ville et prends-la, de peur que je ne prenne la ville et qu'on ne l'appelle de mon nom.
