Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 2 Samuel 13:23-29

Amnon’s murder 13:23-29Absalom patiently and carefully plotted revenge on Amnon.". . . As the sheep of Absalom would lose their wool (2 Samuel 13:23-24), so David’s firstborn, the potential shepherd of Israel, would lose his life (2 Samuel 13:28-29)." [Note: Youngblood, p. 968. ] Absalom finally killed his brother at Baal-hazor, 15 miles north-northeast of Jerusalem, two years later (ca. 985 B.C.).

In this case, if Chileab (or Daniel) was already dead, as seems probable, Absalom stood next in the succession to Amnon, and, however it may have been with himself, his retainers may have looked upon this as a preparatory step towards the throne. The blow was too sudden and unexpected to allow of interference by the other... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - 2 Samuel 13:1-37

CHAPTER XVII.ABSALOM AND AMNON.2 Samuel 13:1-37.LIVING sorrow, says the proverb, is worse than a dead. The dead sorrow had been very grievous to David; what the living sorrow, of which this chapter tells us, must have been, we cannot conceive. It is his own disorderly lusts, reappearing in his sons, that are the source of this new tragedy. It is often useful for parents to ask whether they would like to see their children doing what they allow in themselves; and in many cases the answer is an... read more
