Contextual Overview

¹ After this, Absalom got a chariot and horses for himself and fifty men to run before him. ² Absalom would get up early and stand near the city gate. Anyone who had a problem for the king to settle would come here. When someone came, Absalom would call out and say, "What city are you from?" The person would answer, "I'm from one of the tribes of Israel." ³ Then Absalom would say, "Look, your claims are right, but the king has no one to listen to you." ⁴ Absalom would also say, "I wish someone would make me judge in this land! Then people with problems could come to me, and I could help them get justice." ⁵ People would come near Absalom to bow to him. When they did, Absalom would reach out his hand and take hold of them and kiss them. ⁶ Absalom did that to all the Israelites who came to King David for decisions. In this way, Absalom stole the hearts of all Israel.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Absalom said, moreover,.... To the same persons, at the same time:

oh that I were made judge in the land; by which it appears that he had no office under the king; partly either because of his crime, and so not thought fit, and partly because he appeared to be an ambitious aspiring man, and so it was thought not safe to put him into any office:

that every man that hath any suit or cause might come unto me, and I would do him justice; at once, without any further trouble, or coming often, and in vain, and to no purpose.
