2 Samuel - 14:14 Meaning
“For we must needs die, and are as water spilt on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again; neither doth God respect any person: yet doth he devise means, that his banished be not expelled from him.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
14:1-20 We may notice here, how this widow pleads God's mercy, and his clemency toward poor guilty sinners. The state of sinners is a state of banishment from God. God pardons none to the dishonour of his law and justice, nor any who are impenitent; nor to the encouragement of crimes, or the hurt of others.
“And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.”
