_ _ Joab’s garment, that he had put on was girded unto him — in the fashion of travelers and soldiers.
_ _ a sword ... and as he went forth it fell out — that is, out of the scabbard. According to Josephus, he let it drop on purpose as he was accosting Amasa, that stooping, as it were accidentally, to pick it up, he might salute the new general with the naked sword in his hand, without exciting any suspicion of his design.
_ _ He went forth — in a ceremonious manner to meet Amasa, now commander-in-chief, in order to seem to render to that officer, whom he considered as usurping his post, a conspicuous honor and homage. |

Girded — After the manner of travellers and soldiers. Went forth — To meet and salute Amasa, who was coming towards him to do him honour. It fell — Things having (it is likely) been so contrived by Joab, that upon the least motion of his body, his sword should drop out, and he might take it up without raising Amasa's suspicion. |
