Commentary on 2 Samuel 15:3
Theological / DevotionalGood and right. Everyone was flattered by a favorable verdict, and thus influenced to sing Absalom’s praises throughout the land.
No man deputed. This was an insinuation that the king was careless and indifferent about the administration of justice. The purpose was, of course, to excite among the people a sense of grievance and discontent by censuring the king for remissness in his public responsibilities and to suggest that the remedy for such an unsatisfactory state of affairs would be found in making Absalom king.
