This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

2Sa_20:6 And David said to Abishai, Now shall Sheba the son of Bichri do us more harm than [did] Absalom: take thou thy lord’s servants, and pursue after him, lest he get him fenced cities, and escape us.

Ver. 6. Do us more harm than did Absalom.] David’s endless troubles kept his body still in action, his mind in passions, and his prowess in use, as one speaketh of our King John. {a} Affliction, saith another, so held in the Saxon kings in the Danish wars, that, having little outlets and leisure for ease and luxury, they were made the more pious, just, and careful in their government. {b}



Take thou thy lord’s servants.] That is, My guard, and those other that are in readiness, as 2Sa_20:7.



{a} Speed.

{b} Daniel.
