Treasury of Scriptural Knowledge VERSE (17) - 2Sa 20:6-10
SEV Biblia, Chapter 21:17 Mas Abisai hijo de Sarvia le socorrió, e hirió al filisteo, y lo mató. Entonces los varones de David le juraron, diciendo: Nunca más de aquí adelante saldrás con nosotros a batalla, para que no apagues la lámpara de Israel.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Samuel 21:17 Verse 17. That thou quench not the light of Israel.] David is here considered as the lamp by which all Israel was guided, and without whom all the nation must be involved in darkness. The lamp is the emblem of direction and support. Light is used in this sense by Homer:- oude ti patroklw genomhn faov, audÆ etaroisi toiv alloiv, oi dh poleev damen Æektori diw. Iliad, lib. xviii. ver. 102. "I have neither been a LIGHT to Patroclus nor to his companions, who have been slain by the noble Hector."
Ver. 17. But Abishai the son of Zeruiah succoured him , etc.] Observing him in danger, made haste to his relief: and smote the Philistine, and killed him ; it seems as if Abishai engaged with the Philistine, and killed him; but inasmuch as it will bear to be interpreted of David, and since the four giants here and hereafter mentioned are said to fall by the hand of David and his servants, ( Samuel 21:22), it may be thought that this man fell by his hand; seeing it is clear that all the rest fell by the hands of his servants: then the men of David sware unto him ; after they had observed the danger he was exposed unto, and how narrowly he escaped with his life: saying, thou shalt go no more with us to battle ; they had persuaded him not to go to the battle with Absalom; they had suffered him to go with them now, he being, no doubt, forward and pressing to it; but now they were resolute, and determined he should never go more: that thou quench not the light of Israel ; signifying that their glory and prosperity depended on his life, and that, should he be taken away, they should be in affliction and adversity, their honour and their happiness would be at an end; the Targum is, “thou mayest not extinguish the kingdom of Israel,” the light and glory of it.
Matthew Henry Commentary Verses 15-22 - These events seem to have taken place towards the end of David's reign David fainted, but he did not flee, and God sent help in the time of need. In spiritual conflicts, even strong saints sometimes wax faint then Satan attacks them furiously; but those who stand their ground an resist him, shall be relieved and made more than conquerors. Death is Christian's last enemy, and a son of Anak; but through Him tha triumphed for us, believers shall be more than conquerors at last, eve over that enemy __________________________________________________________________
