22<\/strong>. neither good nor bad<\/em> ] He made no allusion whatever to the matter, in order to quiet Amnon’s suspicions. For the phrase cp. Gen 24:50<\/span>; Gen 31:24<\/span>.<\/p>\n Absalom spake unto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad, i. e. he said nothing at all to him, to wit, about that business. It is a synecdochical expression, used in like manner, Gen 31:24<\/span>. He neither debated it with him, nor threatened him for it; but seemed willing to cover it, and pass it by with brotherly kindness. For if he had wholly forborne all discourse and converse with him, it would have raised great jealousies in Amnon and David, and hindered him in his intended and desired revenge. <\/P> For Absalom hated Amnon; <\/B>or rather, but<\/I>, or though Absalom<\/I>, as the Hebrew particle chi<\/I> commonly signifies; for the following clause is not added as a reason of the former, but by way of exception or opposition. Though he outwardly expressed no dislike of the fact, yet he inwardly hated him. <\/P> <\/p>\n And Absalom spake unto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad<\/strong>,…. That is, said nothing at all to him about the rape of his sister; not that he was sulky with him, and would not converse with him at all; for then Amnon would have mistrusted that he was meditating revenge, and therefore would have been upon his guard; but on the contrary he talked freely, and in appearance friendly, on other things, the better to conceal his hatred of him, and his design to avenge the injury of his sister:<\/p>\n for Absalom hated Amnon<\/strong>; or, “though” f he hated him, yet he behaved in this manner towards him:<\/p>\n because he had forced his sister Tamar<\/strong>: who was so by father and mother’s side, and so near and dear unto him, and therefore resented the injury done her.<\/p>\n f , “quamvis”, Junius & Tremellius, Piscator, Pool, & Patrick.<\/p>\n 2Sa 13:22<\/span><\/em><\/strong>. <\/strong>And Absalom spake unto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad, <\/em><\/strong>&c.<\/strong> But Absalom spoke not at all with Amnon, because he was enraged against him for having violated his sister Tamar. <\/em>Houb. Though grieved to the soul for the injury done to his sister, and resenting it to death, yet Absalom so well dissembled his resentment, as not to take the least notice of it to Amnon. <\/p>\n (22) And Absalom spake unto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar. (23) And it came to pass after two full years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baalhazor, which is beside Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king’s sons. (24) And Absalom came to the king, and said, Behold now, thy servant hath sheepshearers; let the king, I beseech thee, and his servants go with thy servant. (25) And the king said to Absalom, Nay, my son, let us not all now go, lest we be chargeable unto thee. And he pressed him: howbeit he would not go, but blessed him. (26) Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why should he go with thee? (27) But Absalom pressed him, that he let Amnon and all the king’s sons go with him. (28) Now Absalom had commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye now when Amnon’s heart is merry with wine, and when I say unto you, Smite Amnon; then kill him, fear not: have not I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant. (29) And the servants of Absalom did unto Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king’s sons arose, and every man gat him up upon his mule, and fled.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n What a renewed example is here of the malignity of the human heart? Well might our dear Lord tell his disciples, that they knew not what manner of spirit they were of Luk 9:55<\/span> .<\/p>\n 2Sa 13:22 And Absalom spake unto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.<\/p>\n Ver. 22. And Absalom spake unto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad,<\/strong> ] sc., <\/em> About that abuse done to his sister; but made as if he had digested that injury, and put it up. Nothing is more unsafe to be trusted, than the fair looks of a festered heart. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n For Absalom hated Amnon.<\/strong> ] With a habit of hatred, wherein is steeped the venom of all other vices. Gunpowder will take and blaze, sooner than lime; yet lime hath more innate heat, and burneth more within; so is it with the malicious resolved upon revenge, and waiting their opportunity. Beware of such. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Because he had forced his sister Tamar.<\/strong> ] This was the great grudge, the ground of that inveterate hatred. Now if Absalom, though wicked and unnatural, could not endure the wrong done his sister: if Jacob’s sons fell so foul upon the Shechemites for the rape of Dinah, how will the Lord Christ, think we, take the misusages done to his sister, his spouse, the Church, and her members, by those that seek to turn her glory into shame?<\/p>\n spake: Lev 19:17, Lev 19:18, Pro 25:9, Mat 18:15 <\/p>\n neither good: Gen 24:50, Gen 31:24, Gen 31:29 <\/p>\n hated: Lev 19:17, Lev 19:18, Pro 10:18, Pro 26:24, Pro 27:4-6, Ecc 7:9, Eph 4:26, Eph 4:31, 1Jo 3:15 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Gen 34:5 – now his Gen 49:7 – Cursed Num 35:20 – if he thrust 2Ch 11:12 – he put shields Est 5:10 – refrained Pro 18:19 – brother Pro 24:29 – I will do Pro 26:26 – Whose hatred is covered by deceit<\/p>\n 2Sa 13:22. Absalom spake, &c. Though he hated Amnon in his heart, yet he never expressed the least resentment, nor said any thing to him at all about that business. He neither debated it with him, nor threatened him for it, but seemed willing to pass it by with brotherly kindness. Not that he forbore all discourse with him on any subject, which would have raised jealousy in his mind, and also in Davids. But by the method Absalom pursued, Amnon was lulled asleep, in a belief that he would give him no trouble for what he had done.<\/p>\n And Absalom spoke unto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar. 22. neither good nor bad ] He made no allusion whatever to the matter, in order to quiet Amnon’s suspicions.
