SEV Biblia, Chapter 2:28
Entonces Joab tocó el cuerno, y todo el pueblo se detuvo, y no siguió más a los de Israel, ni peleó más.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 28. So Joab blew a trumpet , etc.] Or caused one to be blown as a signal of a retreat: and all the people stood still, and pursued after Israel no more ; as soon as they heard the trumpet sound, the meaning of which they understood, they stepped at once, and left off their pursuit: neither fought they any more ; that day, and perhaps no pitched battle afterwards; for none we read of, though the war continued after this a long time, and there might be often skirmishes, which greatly weakened Abner’s party. (see 2 Samuel 3:1).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 25-32 - Abner appeals to Joab concerning the miserable consequences of a civi war. Those who make light of such unnatural contests, will find tha they are bitterness to all concerned. How easy it is for men to us reason, when it makes for them, who would not use it, if it mad against them! See how the issue of things alter men's minds! The sam thing which looked pleasant in the morning, at night looked dismal Those who are most forward to enter into contention, will repent befor they have done with it, and had better leave it off before it be meddled with, as Solomon advises. This is true of every sin, oh tha men would consider it in time, that it will be bitterness in the latte end! Asahel's funeral is here mentioned. Distinctions are made betwee the dust of some and that of others; but in the resurrection n difference will be made, but between the godly and ungodly, which wil remain for ever __________________________________________________________________
