SEV Biblia, Chapter 14:33
Vino, pues, Joab al rey, y se lo hizo saber. Entonces llamó a Absalón, el cual vino al rey, e inclinó su rostro a tierra delante del rey; y el rey besó a Absalón.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 33. So Joab came to the king, and told him , etc.] What Absalom had said to him: and when he had called for Absalom ; sent messengers to his house to order him to come to him: he came to the king, and bowed himself on his face to the ground before the king ; made a very reverend bow to him, according to the custom of those times, throwing himself at his feet in great submission to him: and the king kissed Absalom ; in token of his reconciliation to him; which laid the foundation of his after troubles from him, related in the following chapters.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 28-33 - By his insolent carriage toward Joab, Absalom brought Joab to plead for him. By his insolent message to the king, he gained his wishes. When parents and rulers countenance such characters, they will soon suffe the most fatal effects. But did the compassion of a father prevail to reconcile him to an impenitent son, and shall penitent sinners questio the compassion of Him who is the Father of mercies __________________________________________________________________
