Poole's Outline of 2 Samuel 16: David's Submission to Chastisement



Ziba, by presents and false suggestions, obtaineth of David his master’s inheritance, 1-4.  Shimei revileth and curseth David, who restraineth Abishai from revenging it, 5-14.  Absalom cometh with Ahithophel to Jerusalem; lieth with his father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel, according to the counsel of Ahithophel, who was esteemed as an oracle, 15-23.

Matthew Henry: 'In the close of the foregoing chapter we left David flying from Jerusalem, and Absalom entering into it; in this chapter, I. We are to follow David in his melancholy flight; and there we find him, 1. Cheated by Ziba, ver. 1-4. 2. Cursed by Shimei, which he bears with wonderful patience, ver. 5-14. II. We are to meet Absalom in his triumphant entry; and there we find him, 1. Cheated by Hushai, ver. 15-19. 2. Counselled by Ahithophel to go in unto his father's concubines, ver. 20-23.'
