Contextual Overview

²¹ The king said to Joab, "Look, I will do what I promised. Bring back the young man Absalom." ²² Joab bowed facedown on the ground and blessed the king. Then he said, "Today I know you are pleased with me, because you have done what I asked." ²³ Then Joab got up and went to Geshur and brought Absalom back to Jerusalem. ²⁴ But King David said, "Absalom must go to his own house. He may not come to see me." So Absalom went to his own house and did not go to see the king. ²⁵ Absalom was greatly praised for his handsome appearance. No man in Israel was as handsome as he. No blemish was on him from his head to his foot. ²⁶ At the end of every year, Absalom would cut his hair, because it became too heavy. When he weighed it, it would weigh about five pounds by the royal measure. ²⁷ Absalom had three sons and one daughter. His daughter's name was also Tamar, and she was a beautiful woman.

I have done: 2 Samuel 14:11, 1 Samuel 14:39, Mark 6:26

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the king said unto Joab,.... Who was present, or but at a little distance, waiting the issue of this affair:

behold now I have done this thing; have agreed to recall Absalom, at the suit of this woman, which thou hast put her upon; or, according to the textual reading, "thou hast done this thing" r; contrived this scheme, to let me know the mind of the people with respect to Absalom, or to represent to me the propriety of sending for him home:

go, therefore, bring the young man Absalom again; I give my consent to it, and you may send for him, or fetch him as soon as you please; it is thought he calls him a young man, to extenuate his crime, that it was done in youthful heat and passion, and therefore he should pass it over.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Samuel 14:21. And the king said unto Joab — It appears that Joab was present at the time when the woman was in conference with the king, and no doubt others of David's courtiers or officers were there also.
