2 Samuel 19:4
_ _ the king covered his face — one of the usual signs of mourning (see on 2 Samuel 15:30). |
2 Samuel 19:4
But the king (a) covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!
(a) As they do that mourn. |
- covered:
2 Samuel 15:30 And David went up by the ascent of [mount] Olivet, and wept as he went up, and had his head covered, and he went barefoot: and all the people that [was] with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.
|
- O my son:
- It is allowed by competent critics that the lamentation of David over his son, of which this forms a part, is exceedingly pathetic; and Calmet properly remarks, that the frequent repetition of the name of the deceased is common in the language of lamentation.
2 Samuel 18:33 And the king was much moved, and went up to the chamber over the gate, and wept: and as he went, thus he said, O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! would God I had died for thee, O Absalom, my son, my son!
