Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

2 Samuel 1:24-27

_ _ Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you in scarlet, with other delights, etc. — The fondness for dress, which anciently distinguished Oriental women, is their characteristic still. It appears in their love of bright, gay, and divers colors, in profuse display of ornaments, and in various other forms. The inmost depths of the poet’s feeling are stirred, and his amiable disposition appears in the strong desire to celebrate the good qualities of Saul, as well as Jonathan. But the praises of the latter form the burden of the poem, which begins and ends with that excellent prince.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 2 Samuel 1:17-27.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

2 Samuel 1:24

Daughters — These he mentions; because the women then used to make songs both of triumph, and of lamentation, and, because they usually are most delighted with the ornaments of the body here following. Clothed you — This he did, because he procured them so much peace as gave them opportunity of enriching themselves: and, because he took these things as spoils from the enemies, and clothed his own people with them.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

2 Samuel 1:24

Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you in scarlet, (l) with [other] delights, who put on ornaments of gold upon your apparel.

(l) As rich garments and costly jewels.
