The Fall of Abner and the Unfolding of Daud’s Reign
In 2 Samuel 3, we witness the tumultuous transition of power from Saul's house to Daud. Abner, the commander of Saul’s army, seeks to make peace with Daud after a fallout with Ish-bosheth over the accusation of taking Saul's concubine. Daud, eager to unite the kingdom, accepts Abner’s offer of peace. However, Joab, driven by a desire to avenge his brother Asahel’s death at Abner's hand, murders Abner, disrupting the peace process. Daud mourns Abner’s death and distances himself from the act, emphasizing that he had no part in the murder, as the power struggle between Saul's house and Daud's reign intensifies.
This chapter highlights how political and personal motives can intertwine, and how even in the midst of Yahuah's plans, human vengeance and emotions complicate the fulfillment of divine will.
Cross-Reference to Yahusha :
* Yahusha as the True King:
The conflict over who would rule Israel—whether it be Ish-bosheth from Saul's house or Daud, Yahuah's anointed—parallels the tension seen in the New Testament between earthly powers and Yahusha as the true spiritual King. In John 18:36, Yahusha tells Pilate, “My kingdom is not of this world.” Similarly, while Daud's kingship was established by Yahuah, human power struggles delayed his reign, much like how Yahusha’s spiritual reign was misunderstood by many who sought an earthly king.
* Vengeance and Justice:
Joab’s desire for vengeance over his brother’s death at Abner’s hands mirrors human tendencies to seek personal retribution. However, Yahusha teaches a different path: “Do not repay evil for evil” (Romans 12:17-19), and instead, to “leave room for Yahuah’s wrath.” This principle highlights how Yahusha’s approach to justice is rooted in patience and divine timing, rather than immediate personal revenge, a lesson that contrasts Joab’s actions in this chapter.
