2 Samuel 3:32 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 3:32

And they buried Abner in Hebron
According to the Jewish account of places of burial F19, he was buried in the midst of the city, though burying places were generally without; and so Fuller F20 places this in his map; whether the cave of Machpelah, which was near Hebron, was now used for a burying place, is not certain:

and the king lifted up his voice and wept at the grave of Abner;
made a great outcry, a loud lamentation, so as to be heard by all the people; and which no doubt was real and hearty, and not done merely with political views:

and all the people wept;
through concern for the death of Abner, especially on account of the manner in which it was, and in imitation of the king, and being affected with his tears and cries.

2 Samuel 3:32 In-Context

30 Joab, pues, y Abisai su hermano mataron a Abner, porque 茅l hab铆a muerto a Asael, hermano de ellos en la batalla de Gaba贸n.
31 Entonces dijo David a Joab, y a todo el pueblo que con 茅l estaba : Romped vuestros vestidos, y ce帽铆os de cilicio, y haced duelo delante de Abner. Y el rey iba detr谩s del f茅retro.
32 Y sepultaron a Abner en Hebr贸n; y alzando el rey su voz, llor贸 junto al sepulcro de Abner; y llor贸 tambi茅n todo el pueblo.
33 Y endechando el rey al mismo Abner, dec铆a: 隆Muri贸 Abner como muere un loco!
34 Tus manos no estaban atadas, ni tus pies ligados con grillos. Ca铆ste como los que caen delante de malos hombres. Y todo el pueblo volvi贸 a llorar sobre 茅l.
