This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Put his household in order - This self-murder could not be called lunacy, as every step to it was deliberate. He foresaw Absalom’s ruin; and he did not choose to witness it, and share in the disgrace: and he could expect no mercy at the hands of David. He was a very bad man, and died an unprepared and accursed death.
