This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
hands: The hand of malefactors were usually secured with cords, and their feet with fetters; a custom to which David affectingly alludes in his lamentation over the dust of Abner. Thy hands, O Abner, were not bound, as found to be a malefactor, nor thy feet put in fetters; thou was treated with honour by him whose business it was to judge thee, and thy attachment to the house of Saul was esteemed rather generous than culpable. As the best of men may fall, so thou fellest by the sword of treachery, not of justice. Jdg 16:21; Psa 107:10-11
wicked men: Heb. children of iniquity, Job 24:14; Hos 6:9
wept: 2Sa 1:12
