Barnes' Notes
Albert Barnes (1798–1870) · Notes on the Whole Bible · 19th-century historical commentary
“The times that went over him - i. e., the events that happened to him. Compare Psalms 31:15. All the kingdoms of the countries - The kingdoms, i. e., of Moab, Ammon, Damascus, Zobah, etc. See the full phrase in 2 Chronicles 17:10. Some account of these kingdoms would necessarily have been given in any history of David’s reign. return to 'Top of Page' Footnotes: Copyright Statement These files are public domain.
