2 Samuel 16:15

And Absalom, and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem ,.... At the same time that David and his people came to Bahurim; which, as Josephus F26 Antiqu. l. 7. c. 9. sect. 4. says, was a place near to Jerusalem; and, according to Bunting F1 Travels, &c.; p. 144. , was little more than a mile from it; though elsewhere F2 Ib. p. 150. he makes it three miles; so that had not David made the hasty flight he did, he had fallen into the hands of Absalom:

and Ahithophel with him : a famous counsellor, and who had been of David's privy council, and chief in it, see 2 Samuel 15:12 and whom David refers to in Psalm 55:12 .
