Dost thou not know the wickedness of Abner,” &c.<\/p>\n Joab saw that if Abner was reconciled to David, his own post as second in the state would be forfeited; and then with characteristic unscrupulosity he proceeded to take Abners life.<\/P> <\/p>\n What hast thou done?<\/B> thou hast committed a great oversight, to dismiss so dangerous and mischievous a person when he was in thy hands. <\/P> <\/p>\n 24-27. Joab came to the king, andsaid, What hast thou done?<\/B>Joab’s knowledge of Abner’s wilycharacter might have led him to doubt the sincerity of that person’sproposals and to disapprove the policy of relying on his fidelity.But undoubtedly there were other reasons of a private and personalnature which made Joab displeased and alarmed by the reception givento Abner. The military talents of that general, his popularity withthe army, his influence throughout the nation, rendered him aformidable rival. In the event of his overtures being carried out,the important service of bringing over all the other tribes to theking of Judah would establish so strong a claim on the gratitude ofDavid, that his accession would inevitably raise a serious obstacleto the ambition of Joab. To these considerations was added theremembrance of the blood feud that existed between them since thedeath of his brother Asahel (2Sa2:23<\/span>). Determined, therefore, to get Abner out of the way, Joabfeigned some reason, probably in the king’s name, for recalling him,and, going out to meet him, stabbed him unawares; not within Hebron,for it was a city of refuge, but at a noted well in the neighborhood.<\/P><\/p>\n Then Joab came to the king<\/strong>,…. To the apartment where he was; perhaps he was told the above at his first entering into the king’s palace, by some in waiting, before he came to the king, which filled him with wrath, so that he came to him in a passion:<\/p>\n and said to him, what hast thou done<\/strong>? which was very insolent in a subject to say to his prince:<\/p>\n behold, Abner came unto thee<\/strong>; I have been credibly informed of it, and am assured it is a fact which cannot be denied; he represents it as if he had done a wrong thing to admit him to come to him; but perhaps the great fault was that he had let him go:<\/p>\n why [is] it [that] thou hast sent him away, and he is quite gone<\/strong>? or “going, [is] gone” e; is clean gone off, when he ought to have been laid hold on as a traitor, and put in irons.<\/p>\n e “et abiit eundo”, Pagninus, Montanus.<\/p>\n (24) What hast thou done?<\/strong>Joabs somewhat rough remonstrance with David may have been supported by an honest suspicion of Abner, for which there was some ground in Abners long opposition to the known Divine will and his present revolt from Ish-bosheth; but there was also a personal enmity, due partly to the fear of being himself supplanted by an older and famous warrior, and partly to the desire to revenge the death of his brother Asahel. Joab seeks to poison Davids mind against Abner, that he may better carry out his revenge.<\/p>\n 24<\/strong>. <\/strong> What hast thou done <\/strong> Words of astonishment and rebuke that David should have lost from his grasp the man who had done so much against him.<\/p>\n 2Sa 3:24 Then Joab came to the king, and said, What hast thou done? behold, Abner came unto thee; why [is] it [that] thou hast sent him away, and he is quite gone?<\/p>\n Ver. 24. What hast thou done?<\/strong> ] q.d., <\/em> Thou hast done indiscreetly. Joab was ever too bold, blunt, and boisterous with David, which cost him at length the loss of his place. 2Sa 19:13 <\/p>\n What . . . ? . . . why . . . ? Figure of speech Erotesis. App-6. <\/p>\n What hast: Joab and his brother Abishai, David’s nephews, had been very faithful and highly useful to him in his distresses; and, from gratitude and natural affection, he had inadvertently permitted them to assume almost as much ascendancy over him as Abner had over the pusillanimous Ishbosheth: he trusted and feared them too much, and allowed them all the importance they claimed; which had emboldened them, especially Joab, to a high degree of presumption. 2Sa 3:8, 2Sa 3:39, 2Sa 19:5-7, Num 23:11, Joh 18:35 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Gen 3:13 – What 1Sa 13:11 – What hast 2Sa 19:6 – thou regardest Pro 19:10 – much<\/p>\n 2Sa 3:24. Then Joab came to the king, and said, What hast thou done? Upon hearing what had passed, he immediately went to David, in the pride of his success, and of the great spoil he had taken, to expostulate with him upon the folly of receiving Abner in the manner he had done, and placing any confidence in a man who, he signified, had come thither only to betray him. This presumption and insolence David was constrained to endure, because of Joabs great power with the army and military men.<\/p>\n 3:24 Then Joab came to the king, and said, {i} What hast thou done? behold, Abner came unto thee; why [is] it [that] thou hast sent him away, and he is quite gone?<\/p>\n (i) Here appears the malicious mind of Joab, who would have had the king slay Abner for his private grudge.<\/p>\n Then Joab came to the king, and said, What hast thou done? behold, Abner came unto thee; why [is] it [that] thou hast sent him away, and he is quite gone? 24. he is quite gone ] The Sept. reads “and he is gone in peace?
