This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2Sa_3:15 And Ishbosheth sent, and took her from [her] husband, [even] from Phaltiel the son of Laish.
Ver. 15. And Ishbosheth sent, and took her from her husband.] By his regal authority he rescindeth that unlawful matrimony of Phaltiel with Michal. This was better than that of Leicester in Queen Elizabeth’s reign, {a} who by his greatness bore out the marriage of Julio, an Italian physician, with another man’s wife; or that of some bishops in King James’s days, and by his appointment, in the business of Essex and Somerset; {b} or that of Philip, Landgrave of Hesse, who took another wife before his former wife was dead, not without the advice of Luther and other Dutch divines, who shamefully misled him. {c}
{a} Camden’s Elisab.
{b} Speed.
