Commentary on 2 Samuel 3:18

Theological / Devotional

The Lord hath spoken. This statement is undoubtedly true, but no exact words to this effect have come down to us in the Biblical record. The pronouncement was probably made through one of the prophets, Samuel, Gad, or Nathan, but only a very small percentage of the words of the prophets have been preserved.
