The people sneaked into the city that day, as people who are ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.
Private to you. Anything you write on this verse, here or while reading, shows up here and in My study.
The people sneaked into the city that day, as people who are ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.
So they returned to the city quietly that day, as people steal away in humiliation after fleeing a battle.
And the people gat them by stealth that day into the city, as people being ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.
And the people gat them by stealth that day into the city, as people that are ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.
And the people made their way back to the town quietly and secretly, as those who are shamed go secretly when they go in flight from the war.
Tap a word to see what it means and everywhere else it's used.
Matthew Henry · Verses 1–8
To continue to lament for so bad a son as Absalom, was very unwise, and very unworthy. Joab censures David, but not with proper respect and deference to his sovereign. A plain case may be fairly pleaded with those above us, and they may be reproved for what they do amiss, but it must not be with rudeness and insolence. Yet David took the reproof and the counsel, prudently and mildly. Timely giving way, usually prevents the ill effects of mistaken measures.
