2 Samuel - 20:11 Meaning
“And one of Joab's men stood by him, and said, He that favoureth Joab, and he that is for David, let him go after Joab.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
20:4-13 Joab barbarously murdered Amasa. The more plot there is in a sin, the worse it is. Joab contentedly sacrificed the interest both of the king and the kingdom to his personal revenge. But one would wonder with what face a murderer could pursue a traitor; and how, under such a load of guilt, he had courage to enter upon danger: his conscience was seared.
“For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.”
