Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Kings 2:13-46

King Solomon Firmly Establishes His Rule By Removing All known Rebellion From His Kingdom (1 Kings 2:13-46 ). Having been warned by his father David as to who had to be watched as he sought to establish his kingdom (the powerful but unreliable Joab, the son of his sister Zeruiah, and the belligerent but influential Shimei, the son of Gera, the Benjaminite - 1 Kings 2:5-9), and having himself given sufficient warnings to them which were not heeded, Solomon proceeded to eliminate Adonijah, Joab... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Kings 2:26-35

Solomon Deals Firmly With Adonijah’s Fellow-Conspirators, Abiathar and Joab (1 Kings 2:26-35 ). In this passage judgment falls on Adonijah’s fellow-conspirators. That they were genuinely so comes out in that Abiathar is included in the judgment in spite of Solomon’s kindly feelings towards him. In his case judgment involved being removed from his influential position as High Priest (a huge step for Solomon to take), and banished to live on his own estates. In the case of Joab, however, it... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Kings 2:32

“ And YHWH will return his blood on his own head, because he fell on two men more righteous and better than he, and slew them with the sword, and my father David knew it not, to wit, Abner the son of Ner, captain of the host of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the host of Judah.” Solomon then resorted to special pleading in order to obtain his ends. It was in our view simply not true to say that Abner and Amasa were necessarily better men than Joab, although it is seemingly true... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Kings 2:33

“ So will their blood return on the head of Joab, and on the head of his seed for ever, but to David, and to his seed, and to his house, and to his throne, will there be peace for ever from YHWH.” Solomon’s hope by this was that, as a result of Joab’s execution, the blame and blood guilt for both these deaths should fall squarely on Joab, and on his descendants, and be fully removed from David and his descendants, with the consequence that David’s house would receive wellbeing from YHWH. The... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Kings 2:1-46

1 Kings 2:1-1 Corinthians : . Death of David; Solomon Established on his Throne.— The main source of this chapter is the same as that of 1, but interspersed are Deuteronomic additions ( 1 Kings 2:3 f., 1 Kings 2:10-2 Kings :; 1 Kings 2:27). The authenticity of David’ s advice to Solomon has been disputed, especially the reasons given for procuring Joab’ s execution. Judged by any standard it places his character in an unamiable light. Solomon was advised to find a pretext for putting Joab and... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - 1 Kings 2:31

Do as he hath said; either, 1. Kill him in that place; and for so doing Solomon might seem to have warrant from God, Exodus 21:14, and might further design by this just severity to deter future offenders, by showing that no place nor person should protect them from the stroke of justice. Or rather, 2. Let him die as he is resolved; kill him, though he be there; take him by violence from that place, and then kill him; for Exodus 21:14 doth not command the ruler to kill the murderer there, but to... read more

His blood, i.e. the guilt of the blood which he shed. More righteous and better than he; of more ingenuous and generous tempers, abhorring from all such treacherous practices; and both of them then devoted to and employed in my service. read more

Upon the head of his seed for ever; either as long as he shall have a posterity, or for a long time, as that phrase is commonly used; but in and by this execution of justice upon him, and such malefactors, my throne shall be established, and God will bless me and mine with peace and prosperity. read more

CRITICAL AND EXPLANATORY NOTES.—1 Kings 2:30. Nay, but I will die here—A defiance of the king’s message, thinking that Solomon dared not order his execution there. But Joab had placed himself outside the protection of the altar (Exodus 21:14; Deuteronomy 19:11-13).

It is susceptible of the loftiest rapture, or the most abject... read more
