Commentary on 2 Samuel 16:12

Theological / Devotional

Look on mine affliction. David knew that the Lord was a God of great pity and mercy. Though suffering this abuse from one of his subjects, he took comfort in the thought that God saw and understood it all. Perhaps because of this very trial the Lord would in mercy send some special reward and blessing to take its place.
