His father had not displeased him at any time: this is noted as David's great error, and the occasion of Adonijah's presumption. Why hast thou done so ? he neither restrained him from, nor reproved him for his miscarriages; which was a great sin against that plain law, Leviticus 19:17, and severely punished in Eli, which David was not ignorant of, except Adonijah's errors were small, or concealed from David. He also: this particle relates, either, first, To Absalom here following, who also was a goodly man. Or rather, secondly, To what goes before, to signify that this was a second ground of his confidence, because his great comeliness made him amiable in the people's eyes, as his father's indulgence was the first. After Absalom, i. e. next after Absalom was born of his mother: see 2 Samuel 3:3,4.
