SEV Biblia, Chapter 29:27
Y el tiempo que reinó sobre Israel fue cuarenta años. En Hebrón reinó siete años, y treinta y tres años reinó en Jerusalén.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 27. And the time that he reigned over Israel was forty years , etc.] (see 1 Kings 2:11).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 26-30 - When we read the second book of Samuel, we could scarcely have expecte to behold David appear so illustrious in his closing scene. But his repentance had been as remarkable as his sin; and his conduct durin his afflictions, and towards the end of his life, appears to have had good effect on his subjects. Blessed be God, even the chief of sinner may hope for a glorious departure, when brought to repent and flee for refuge to the Saviour's atoning blood. Let us mark the differenc between the spirit and character of the man after God's own heart living and dying, and those of worthless professors, who resemble his in nothing but their sins, and who wickedly try to excuse their crime by his sins. Let us watch and pray, lest we be overcome by temptation and overtaken by sin, to the dishonour of God, and the wounding of ou own consciences. When we feel that we have offended, let us follo David's example of repentance and patience, looking for a glorious resurrection, through our Lord Jesus Christ __________________________________________________________________
