Commentary on 2 Samuel 12:29

Theological / Devotional

All the people. Joab had proposed a general muster of all the people for the capture of Rabbah (v. 28). David carried out this proposal and now appeared in person for the final capture of the city. Since the fall of the city was certain, a full muster of the national strength seems to have been prompted by choice rather than necessity.
