This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2Sa_19:29 And the king said unto him, Why speakest thou any more of thy matters? I have said, Thou and Ziba divide the land.
Ver. 29. I have said, Thou and Ziba divide the land.] Condemnatur hic Mephiboshethus ex asse. David now, in haste, and full of business, passeth an unjust sentence; intending, perhaps, to be better informed hereafter: and not willing at present to displease Ziba, by taking back from him all that he had given him. The Hebrews say, that because David broke his oath made to Jonathan, and divided Mephibosheth’s land, that afterward his kingdom was divided in Rehoboam’a days. Abulensis thinketh that David made Mephibosheth amends for this wrong some other way.
