2 Samuel 4:2 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 4:2

And Saul's son had two men [that were] captains of bands
Of troops in the army, or of guards about the person of Ishbosheth son of Saul:

the name of the one [was] Baanah, and the name of the other Rechab, the
sons of Rimmon a Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin;
so that these men were brethren in nature, as well as in iniquity; they had the same father, who is described by his name and city, and their names are expressly mentioned and recorded to their infamy; and they were not only the servants of Ishbosheth, who had commissions under him, but were of the same tribe with him; all which is observed as an aggravation of their crime:

for Beeroth also was reckoned to Benjamin;
the place from whom Rimmon their father is denominated, and where he dwelt, as well as Gittaim, where they had sojourned, as in ( 2 Samuel 4:3 ) . This place, Beeroth, originally belonged to the Gibeonites, and fell to the lot of Benjamin at the division of the land, see ( Joshua 9:17 ) ( 18:25 ) .

2 Samuel 4:2 In-Context

1 LUEGO que oyó el hijo de Saúl que Abner había sido muerto en Hebrón, las manos se le descoyuntaron, y fué atemorizado todo Israel.
2 Y tenía el hijo de Saúl dos varones, los cuales eran capitanes de compañía, el nombre de uno era Baana, y el del otro Rechâb, hijos de Rimmón Beerothita, de los hijos de Benjamín: (porque Beeroth era contada con Benjamín;
3 Estos Beerothitas se habían huído á Gittaim, y habían sido peregrinos allí hasta entonces.)
4 Y Jonathán, hijo de Saúl, tenía un hijo lisiado de los pies de edad de cinco años: que cuando la noticia de la muerte de Saúl y de Jonathán vino de Jezreel, tomóle su ama y huyó; y como iba huyendo con celeridad, cayó el niño y quedó cojo. Su nombre era Mephi-boseth.
5 Los hijos pues de Rimmón Beerothita, Rechâb y Baana, fueron y entraron en el mayor calor del día en casa de Is-boseth, el cual estaba durmiendo en su cámara la siesta.
