2 Samuel 13:12 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Nay, my brother, whom nature both teacheth to abhor such thoughts, and obligeth to defend me from such a mischief with thy utmost hazard if another should attempt it. Do not force me: thou shouldst abhor it, if I were willing; but to add violence to thy filthiness is abominable. In Israel; among God's people, who are taught better things; who also will be infinitely reproached for such a base action.

2 Samuel 13:12

12 And she answered him, Nay, my brother, do not forced me; for no such thing ought to be done in Israel: do not thou this folly.
