2 Samuel - 14:18 Meaning
“Then the king answered and said unto the woman, Hide not from me, I pray thee, the thing that I shall ask thee. And the woman said, Let my lord the king now speak.”
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.”
