2 Samuel 13:35 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 13:35

And Jonadab said to the king, behold, the king's sons come,
&c.] For as they came nearer, it was plainly discovered that they were the king's sons, seen on the side of the hill:

as thy servant said, so it is;
he seems to applaud himself, and exult at his penetration and foresight.

2 Samuel 13:35 In-Context

33 No, my lord the king, your sons aren’t all dead! It was only Amnon.”

34 Meanwhile Absalom escaped. Then the watchman on the Jerusalem wall saw a great crowd coming down the hill on the road from the west. He ran to tell the king, “I see a crowd of people coming from the Horonaim road along the side of the hill.”

35 “Look!” Jonadab told the king. “There they are now! The king’s sons are coming, just as I said.”

36 They soon arrived, weeping and sobbing, and the king and all his servants wept bitterly with them.

37 And David mourned many days for his son Amnon. Absalom fled to his grandfather, Talmai son of Ammihud, the king of Geshur.
