Tafsiran/Catatan -- Catatan Kata/Frasa (per frasa)

Wesley: 2Sa 17:27 - Shobi

Who, as it may seem, disliked and disowned that barbarous action to the ambassadors; and therefore, when the rest were destroyed, was left king or governor of the residue of the Ammonites.

Wesley: 2Sa 17:27 - Machir

See above 2Sa 9:4.

JFB: 2Sa 17:27-29 - when David was come to Mahanaim

The necessities of the king and his followers were hospitably ministered to by three chiefs, whose generous loyalty is recorded with honor in the sacred narrative.

JFB: 2Sa 17:27-29 - Shobi

Must have been a brother of Hanun. Disapproving, probably, of that young king's outrage upon the Israelite ambassadors, he had been made governor of Ammon by David on the conquest of that country.

JFB: 2Sa 17:27-29 - Machir

(See 2Sa 9:4). Supposed by some to have been a brother of Bath-sheba, and

JFB: 2Sa 17:27-29 - Barzillai

A wealthy old grandee, whose great age and infirmities made his loyal devotion to the distressed monarch peculiarly affecting. The supplies they brought, which (besides beds for the weary) consisted of the staple produce of their rich lands and pastures, may be classified as follows: eatables--wheat, barley, flour, beans, lentils, sheep, and cheese; drinkables--"honey and butter" or cream, which, being mixed together, form a thin, diluted beverage, light, cool, and refreshing. Being considered a luxurious refreshment (Son 4:11), the supply of it shows the high respect that was paid to David by his loyal and faithful subjects at Mahanaim.

Gill: 2Sa 17:27 - And it came to pass, when David was come to Mahanaim // that Shobi the son of Nahash of Rabbah of the children of Ammon // and Machir the son of Ammiel of Lodebar // and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim

And it came to pass, when David was come to Mahanaim,.... When he first came thither, 2Sa 17:24,

that Shobi the son of Nahash of Rabbah of the children of Ammon: who was either the son, or rather the brother of Hanun king of the Ammonites, that used David's ambassadors in so shameful a manner, whom David overcame and deposed, and set up this brother in his room; who had showed his dislike of his brother's conduct, and now makes a grateful return to David for his favours; though some say this was Hanun himself, as Jarchi, now become a proselyte, which is not so likely; others take this man to be an Israelite that continued in Rabbah, the metropolis of the Ammonites, after it was taken by David:

and Machir the son of Ammiel of Lodebar; the same that brought up Mephibosheth, from whom David received him and took him off of his hands, for which now he requited him, see 2Sa 9:5,

and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim; a place that lay under the hills of Gilead ^y; it had its name from the "fullers" who dwelt here for the convenience of fountains of water to wash their clothes in.
