Commentary on 2 Samuel 16:14

Theological / Devotional

Refreshed themselves there. This sentence seems to require the mention of a place at which David and his company halted. Some of the manuscripts of the Lucian edition of the LXX add, “beside the Jordan.” Josephus agrees with this reading (Antiquities vii. 9. 4). It was probably the place previously agreed upon with Hushai at which David had arranged to tarry till he had received news from him (2 Samuel 15:28).
