2 Samuel 21:3 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Unto the Gibeonites; to some of the chief of them, who were to impart it to the rest. What shall I do for you? what satisfaction do you expect or require for the injuries formerly done to you? That ye may bless the inheritance of the Lord; that by your acknowledgment of satisfaction received, the guilt and curse may be removed from the land and people of God, and by this means, as also by your prayers, God may be reconciled, and may restore his blessing of plenty to us, which hitherto he hath denied us.
