This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2Sa_15:9 And the king said unto him, Go in peace. So he arose, and went to Hebron.
Ver. 9. Go in peace.] David was so blinded with fond affection, that he could see nothing amiss in Absalom; though otherwise he were sagacious enough, yea, suspicious without cause, as of good Mephibosheth. The Dutch have a proverb, Where God intendeth to destroy any man, he first putteth out his eyes.
And went to Hebron.] The fittest place for his purpose, because ancient and famous, the place of his birth, and where he had many friends. See Jdg_9:1. {See Trapp on "Jdg_9:1"}
