SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:24
Entonces Joab vino al rey, y le dijo: ¿Qué has hecho? He aquí habíase venido Abner a ti; ¿por qué pues lo dejaste que se fuese?
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 24. Then Joab came to the king , etc.] To the apartment where he was; perhaps he was told the above at his first entering into the king’s palace, by some in waiting, before he came to the king, which filled him with wrath, so that he came to him in a passion: and said to him, what hast thou done ? which was very insolent in a subject to say to his prince: behold, Abner came unto thee ; I have been credibly informed of it, and am assured it is a fact which cannot be denied; he represents it as if he had done a wrong thing to admit him to come to him; but perhaps the great fault was that he had let him go: why [is] it [that] thou hast sent him away, and he is quite gone ? or “going, [is] gone” f57 ; is clean gone off, when he ought to have been laid hold on as a traitor, and put in irons.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 22-39 - Judgments are prepared for such scorners as Abner; but Joab, in what he did, acted wickedly. David laid Abner's murder deeply to heart, and in many ways expressed his detestation of it. The guilt of blood brings curse upon families: if men do not avenge it, God will. It is a sad thing to die like a fool, as they do that any way shorten their ow days, and those who make no provision for another world. Who would be fond of power, when a man may have the name of it, and must be accountable for it, yet is hampered in the use of it? David ought to have done his duty, and then trusted God with the issue. Carnal polic spared Joab. The Son of David may long delay, but never fails to punis impenitent sinners. He who now reigns upon the throne of David, has kingdom of a nobler kind. Whatever He doeth, is noticed by all his willing people, and is pleasing to them __________________________________________________________________
