And there happened to be there a man of Belial, whose name [was] Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite: and he blew a trumpet, and said, We have no part in David, neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man to his tents, O Israel.

Commentary on 2 Samuel 20:1

Theological / Devotional

Sheba. A Benjamite who still retained a spirit of enmity to the house of David. He took advantage of the dispute between the men of Israel and Judah (ch. 19:41-43) to raise the cry of revolt against the king.

To his tents. For the use of this phrase, see 1 Kings 12:16; 2 Chron. 10:16.
