2 Samuel 3:6-11
_ _ 2 Samuel 3:6-12. Abner revolts to David.
_ _ Abner made himself strong for the house of Saul — In the East, the wives and concubines of a king are the property of his successor to this extent, that for a private person to aspire to marry one of them would be considered a virtual advance of pretensions to the crown (see 1 Kings 2:17). It is not clear whether the accusation against Abner was well or ill founded. But he resented the charge as an indignity, and, impelled by revenge, determined to transfer all the weight of his influence to the opposite party. He evidently set a full value on his services, and seems to have lorded it over his weak nephew in a haughty, overbearing manner. |
2 Samuel 3:6
Strong — He used all his endeavours to support Saul's house: which is mentioned, to shew the reason of his deep resentment of the following aspersion. |

Joel 3:9-13 Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up: ... Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down; for the press is full, the fats overflow; for their wickedness [is] great.
