Commentary on 2 Samuel 2:17

Theological / Devotional

A very sore battle. The numbers engaged were probably not large, since the total of those slain was only 20 on the side of David and 360 on the side of Israel (vs. 30, 31), but the contest was fought out with a fierceness that brought a decisive victory to the forces of Judah.
