This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Messengers on his behalf; who in his name and stead might treat with David concerning his reconciliation with him. Thus God overrules the lusts and passions of wicked men, to accomplish his own wise and holy purposes. And who then dare contend with that God who makes even his enemies to do his work, and destroy themselves?



Whose is the land? to whom doth this whole land belong, but to thee? Is it not thine by Divine right? Saul’s son is but a usurper, thou only art the rightful owner.



Make thy league with me, that thou wilt pardon all past offences to me, and to all Israel, and thou wilt receive me into thy grace and favour.
