SEV Biblia, Chapter 2:41

Y fue dicho a Salomón como Simei había ido de Jerusalén hasta Gat, y que había vuelto.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 41. And it was told Solomon , etc.] By the spies he set to watch and observe his motions, or by some others who had seen him go out and return, and knew that it was contrary to the king’s orders: that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and was come again ; which was thirty four miles from Jerusalem f34 ; whereas his utmost bounds, whither he might go, was the brook Kidron, about half a mile from it.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 35-46 - The old malignity remains in the unconverted heart, and a watchful ey should be kept on those who, like Shimei, have manifested their enmity but have given no evidence of repentance. No engagements or danger will restrain worldly men; they go on, though they forfeit their live and souls. Let us remember, God will not accommodate his judgment to us. His eye is over us; and let us strive to walk as in his presence Let our every act, word, and thought, be governed by this great truth that the hour is quickly coming when the smallest circumstances of ou lives shall be brought to light, and our eternal state be fixed by righteous and unerring God. Thus Solomon's throne was established in peace, as the type of the Redeemer's kingdom of peace an righteousness. And it is a comfort, in reference to the enmity of the church's enemies, that, how much soever they rage, it is a vain thin they imagine. Christ's throne is established, and they cannot shake it __________________________________________________________________
