John Trapp

John Trapp Complete Commentary - 2 Samuel 13:21

2Sa 13:21 But when king David heard of all these things, he was very wroth. Ver. 21. But when king David heard … he was very wroth.] Why! but was that all? Wherefore did not David, as supreme magistrate, see due execution done on this malefactor, though never so great? Why did he not reprove him at least very sharply for this foul fact? Should he have thus connived at Amnon’s offence, because he was his firstborn, and now looked so thin and wan? Knew he not how ill good Eli sped for his... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - 2 Samuel 13:22

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. Ver. 22. And Absalom spake unto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad, ] sc., 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. For Absalom hated Amnon. ] With a habit of hatred, wherein is steeped the venom of all other vices.... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - 2 Samuel 13:23

2Sa 13:23 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. Ver. 23. And it came to pass after two full years. ] So long Absalom had dissembled his wrath, which is - as we use to say of Runnet - the older, the stronger: and so long Amnon had gone unpunished by the patience of God, and the fondness of his father. Now, therefore, subito tollitur qui diu toleratur, God taketh the sword in... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - 2 Samuel 13:24

2Sa 13:24 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. Ver. 24. Behold now thy servant hath sheepshearers. ] Absalom, though the king’s son, was a sheep-master, - such was the simplicity of former times, - which now-a-days would be accounted terminus diminuens, a disparagement. That was a tart but true answer of the Lord Spencer - in the Parliament held A.D. 1621 - to the Earl of... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - 2 Samuel 13:25

2Sa 13:25 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. Ver. 25. Lest we be chargeable unto thee. ] So tender was David over this his ungracious son: he was ever too passionately affected to his children, as is afore noted. And he pressed him. ] Too fair shows are a just argument of unsoundness. No natural face hath so clear a white and red as the painted. But blessed him. ] ... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - 2 Samuel 13:26

2Sa 13:26 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? Ver. 26. If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go. ] Who, being thine eldest, may represent thy person there. Here was a fair glove drawn upon a foul hand: by courtesy he seeketh to cover his bloody design. read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - 2 Samuel 13:27

2Sa 13:27 But Absalom pressed him, that he let Amnon and all the king’s sons go with him. Ver. 27. But Absalom pressed him. ] His so great importunity might well have begotten a jealousy and suspicion both in David and Amnon - had they not been infatuated - that some mischief was intended. But Deus quem destruit, dementiat. Let God make deranged whom he destroys. read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - 2 Samuel 13:28

2Sa 13:28 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. Ver. 28. Now Absalom had commanded his servants. ] His assassins, whom some conceive to have been Geshurites of his mother’s country, ready to flee thither with him, as 2 Samuel 13:37 . When Amnon’s heart is merry with wine.] See on 2 Samuel 13:13 . And when I say... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - 2 Samuel 13:29

2Sa 13:29 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. Ver. 29. And the servants of Absalom did unto Amnon, &c. ] So bitter is the end of sinful pleasures. Cavete a Melampygo. Amnon died in his sin, which is worse than to die in a ditch. Be not wicked too much: why shouldst thou die before thy time, Ecc 7:17 i.e., when it were better to do anything than die? Luther, when he heard of a... read more

2Sa 13:30 And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that tidings came to David, saying, Absalom hath slain all the king’s sons, and there is not one of them left. Ver. 30. Absalom hath slain all the king’s sons.] Rumour is a loud liar, like a snowball that gathereth as it goeth, “ Mobilitate viget, viresque acquirit eundo. ” - Virgil. Thales the Milesian being asked how far truth differeth from a lie, answered, As far as the eyes are distant from the ears: intimating, that there is... read more
