2 Samuel - 14:6 Meaning
“And thy handmaid had two sons, and they two strove together in the field, and there was none to part them, but the one smote the other, and slew him.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
14:1-20 We may notice here, how this widow pleads God's mercy, and his clemency toward poor guilty sinners. The state of sinners is a state of banishment from God. God pardons none to the dishonour of his law and justice, nor any who are impenitent; nor to the encouragement of crimes, or the hurt of others.
“And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger cattle did conceive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the cattle in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods.”
