[1] {But Absalom fled, and went to Talmai}
# 1Sa 27:8
David, in the years of his wanderings, made a savage raid upon
Geshur, and evidently bore away Maacah, daughter of the king of
Geshur. Of her was born Absalom, and in him was her wild Bedouin
blood, and the blood of a father who had been the reckless chief of a
handful of desperate men.
# 2Sa 3:3 23:8-39
and whom only the divine love could tame.
# 2Sa 22:36
In Absalom David reaped from his own sowing.

[1] {saw not the king's face}
Not so had God taught David to forgive. Legalists have thought
Absalom's wilfulness to have been due to over-indulgence on the
part of David. There is no such intimation in Scripture. Rather it
would seem that had David at this time taken Absalom into intimacy,
the rebellion might have been averted.
