2Sa_14:31 Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom unto [his] house, and said unto him, Wherefore have thy servants set my field on fire?
Ver. 31. Then Joab arose.] Then he came speedily. Affliction hath whipped many a soul to heaven, whom, otherwise, prosperity had coached to hell. When God’s people leave this world they go to God; and when the world leaveth them, that is, when crosses come, they do the like; they arise and go to him. {Hos_6:1}
