This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

2Sa_18:12 And the man said unto Joab, Though I should receive a thousand [shekels] of silver in mine hand, [yet] would I not put forth mine hand against the king’s son: for in our hearing the king charged thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Beware that none [touch] the young man Absalom.

Ver. 12. Yet would I not put forth mine hand.] Because it would be as much as my life is worth. How mad, then, are they who for a few paltry shillings part with their precious souls!

Hoc Ithacus velit, hoc magno mercentur Achivi.
