This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2Sa_23:7 But the man [that] shall touch them must be fenced with iron and the staff of a spear; and they shall be utterly burned with fire in the [same] place.
Ver. 7. And they shall be utterly burnt with fire in the same place,] sc., Where they grew, or whither they are thrust away. Certain it is they shall be utterly destroyed here or in hell, as those stubborn Jews were who crucified Christ. The Romans came upon them with their iron weapons, killed innumerable of them in the very same place, and burnt down their city. "And when the king heard thereof," - that as thorns they drew blood of his dearest servants, or at least were as thorns in their eyes, {Jos_4:13} untractable, untameable, and, therefore, fit for the fire, {Heb_6:8} - "he was wroth, and sent forth his armies," the Romans, "and destroyed those murderers, and burnt up their city." {Mat_22:7}
