The whole of this little episode is extremely interesting, and
contains an affecting description of the infirmities of old
age. The venerable and kind Barzillai was fourscore years
old; his ear was become dull of hearing, and his relish for
even royal dainties was gone: the evil days had arrived in
which he was constrained to say, "I have no pleasure in them."
(Ec 12:1.) As he was too old either to enjoy the pleasures of
a court, or to be of any further service to the king, he
finishes his affecting address to the aged monarch with the
request, that he would suffer him to enjoy what old men
naturally desire, to "die in mine own city, and be buried by
the grave of my father and mother;" at the same time
commending his son Chimham to his kind offices.

The kiss was the token of friendship and farewell; the
blessing was a prayer to God for his prosperity: probably a
prophetical benediction.

Whatever value or respect the men of Israel at this time
professed for their king, they would not have quarrelled so
fiercely about their own credit and interest in recalling him,
if they had been truly sorry for their former rebellion.

The confinement and retired maintenance of these women was the
only measure which in justice and prudence could be adopted.
In China, when an emperor dies, all his women are removed to
an edifice called the palace of chastity, situated within the
palace, in which they are shut up for the remainder of their
lives.

Thevenot says, that among the Turks it is a great afront to
take one by the beard, unless it be to kiss him, in which case
they often do it. D'Arvieux, describing an assembly of Arab
emirs at an entertainment, says, "After the usual civilities,
caresses, kissings of the beard, and of the hand, which every
one gave and received according to his rank and dignity, they
sat down upon mats." The doing this by the Arab emirs
corresponds with the conduct of Joab, and illustrates this
horrid assassination.

* Abel.
Or rather, probably, Abel of Beth-Maachah, as in the next
verse. It appears, from Joab having marched "through all the
tribes of Israel," to have been situated in the northern
confines of the land of Israel, and in the half tribe of
Manasseh, east of Jordan, as that was the situation of
Maachah, to which it belonged. This agrees with the situation
of the Abela which Eusebius and Jerome place between Paneas,
or Cæsarea Philippi, and Damascus. Josephus says it was a
fortified city, and a metropolis of the Israelites; and also
that it belonged to the ten tribes, having been taken from the
king of Damascus.

So LXX. generally render {solelah,} by [proschoma or choma;]
which latter is described by Potter as "a mount, which was
raised so high as to equal, if not exceed, the top of the
besieged walls. The sides were walled in with bricks or
stones, or secured with strong rafters; the fore part only,
being by degrees to be moved near the walls, remained bare."

The Hebrew is {cohen ledawid,} which might be rendered, a
priest of David; and so the Septuagint, Vulgate, Syriac, and
Arabic. The Chaldee has {rav,} a chief or prince: probably
he was a kind of domestic chaplain or seer to the king.

As God accepted the expiation here demanded, we must suppose
that both the enquiry of David, and the answer of the
Gibeonites, were directed by some open or secret intimation
from him.

This Adriel did not marry Michal, Saul's younger daughter, but
Merab, 1 Sa 18:19; Michael being married to David, and
afterwards to Phaltiel; though it is here said she bore
{(yaledah,} not brought up, as falsely rendered, five sons to
Adriel. Two of Dr. Kennicott's MSS., however, have Merab,
instead of Michal; the Syriac and Arabic have Nadab; and the
Chaldee renders the passage thus: "And the five sons of Merab
which Michal the daughter of Saul brought up, which she
brought forth to Adriel the son of Barzillai."

Some suppose that this means a providential supply of rain, in
order to remove the famine; but from the manner in which it is
introduced, it seems to denote the autumnal rains, which
commence about October. For five months did this
broken-hearted woman watch by the bodies of her sons!
