サムエル記下 11:10-11 JC

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 2 Samuel 11:1-27

In the whole of the Old Testament literature there is no chapter more tragic or full of solemn and searching warning than this. Carefully pondering it, we notice the downward steps logically following each other in rapid succession. First, "David tarried at Jerusalem." It was the time of war, and his place was with the army. Instead of being there, he had remained behind, in the sphere of temptation. This is not to say that the place of peace is more perilous than that of war, but rather that... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Samuel 11:1-17

David Sinks Into Spiritual Apathy Which Results In Mounting Sins Of The Most Serious Kind (2 Samuel 11:1-17 ). In this chapter we are brought face to face with a David who had clearly fallen out of touch with YHWH. Nothing else can explain why he so continually ignored YHWH’s clear commandments. It can in fact only be seen as resulting from the fact that he had fallen into a state of complete spiritual insensibility, totally unlike the picture that we have of him elsewhere, both in this book... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - 2 Samuel 11:10

When they had told David; whether of their own accord, or being first asked by David, it doth not appear. Camest thou not from thy journey, wearied with hard service and travel, and therefore didst need refreshment? nor did I expect or desire that thou shouldst now attend upon my person, or keep the watch. read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - 2 Samuel 11:11

The ark, it seems, was now carried with them for their encouragement and direction, as was usual: see Numbers 10:35; 1 Samuel 4:4. In the open fields, to wit, in tents which are in the fields. And to lie with my wife: he might possibly add these words, to insinuate his apprehension of the king’s design, and to awaken his conscience to the consideration of his sin, and of the injury which he had done him. His meaning is, Now when God’s people are in a doubtful and dangerous condition, it becomes... read more
