Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

CHAPTER 13

2Sa 13:1-5. Amnon Loves Tamar.

1. Tamar-daughter of David by Maachah (2Sa 3:3).

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

13:1-20 From henceforward David was followed with one trouble after another. Adultery and murder were David's sins, the like sins among his children were the beginnings of his punishment: he was too indulgent to his children. Thus David might trace the sins of his children to his own misconduct, which must have made the anguish of the chastisement worse. Let no one ever expect good treatment from those who are capable of attempting their seduction; but it is better to suffer the greatest wrong than to commit the least sin.

2 Samuel 3:2 Sons were born to David at Hebron: his firstborn was Amnon, by Ahinoam the Jezreelitess;

2 Samuel 3:3 and his second, Chileab, by Abigail the widow of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, Absalom the son of Maacah, the daughter of Talmai, king of Geshur;

1 Chronicles 3:2 the third was Absalom the son of Maacah, the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur; the fourth was Adonijah the son of Haggith;

1 Chronicles 3:9 All these were the sons of David, besides the sons of the concubines; and Tamar was their sister. (NASB ©1995)
