2 Samuel 1:13 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 1:13

And David said unto the young man that told him, whence [art]
thou?
&c.] From what place, or of what people and nation art thou? though Abarbinel thinks it neither respects place nor people, but that David thought he was another man's servant; so that the sense of the question is, to what man did he belong?

and he answered, I [am] the son of a stranger, an Amalekite;
he was not any man's servant, but the son of a proselyte, of one that was by birth and nation an Amalekite, but proselyted to the Jewish religion; he might know of what nation he originally was, by the account he had given of what passed between him and Saul, ( 2 Samuel 1:8 ) ; though the mind of David might so disturbed as not to advert to it; or if he did, he might be willing to have it repeated for confirmation's sake.

11 Entonces David trabando de sus vestidos, los rompi贸; y lo mismo hicieron los hombres que estaban con 茅l.
12 Y lloraron y lamentaron, y ayunaron hasta la tarde, por Sa煤l y por Jonat谩n su hijo, y por el pueblo del SE脩OR, y por la casa de Israel; porque hab铆an ca铆do a cuchillo.
13 Y David dijo a aquel joven que le hab铆a tra铆do las nuevas: 驴De d贸nde eres t煤? Y 茅l respondi贸: Yo soy hijo de un extranjero, amalecita.
14 Y le dijo David: 驴C贸mo no tuviste temor de extender tu mano para matar al ungido del SE脩OR?
15 Entonces llam贸 David a uno de los j贸venes, y le dijo: Llega, y m谩talo. Y 茅l lo hiri贸, y muri贸.
