And the king, and all the people that [were] with him, came weary, etc.] With their journey, and through grief and trouble at what they met with: and refreshed themselves there: that is, at Bahurim, with food and rest; which revived their spirits, and put as it were new life and soul into them, as the word used signifies. Josephus f273 says, when David came to Jordan, he refreshed his weary men.
