2 Samuel 19:2 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

And the victory that day was turned into mourning unto all the people: for the people heard say that day how the king was grieved for his son. The victory - was turned into mourning - Instead of rejoicing that a most unnatural and ruinous rebellion had been quashed, the people mourned over their own success, because they saw their king so immoderately afflicted for the loss of his worthless son.
