2 Samuel - 13:30 Meaning
“And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that tidings came to David, saying, Absalom hath slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
13:30-39 Jonadab was as guilty of Ammon's death, as of his sin; such false friends do they prove, who counsel us to do wickedly. Instead of loathing Absalom as a murderer, David, after a time, longed to go forth to him. This was David's infirmity: God saw something in his heart that made a difference, else we should have thought that he, as much as Eli, honoured his sons more than God.
“For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;”
