Contextual Overview

¹ Ahithophel said to Absalom, "Let me choose twelve thousand men and chase David tonight. ² I'll catch him while he is tired and weak, and I'll frighten him so all his people will run away. But I'll kill only King David. ³ Then I'll bring everyone back to you. If the man you are looking for is dead, everyone else will return safely." ⁴ This plan seemed good to Absalom and to all the leaders of Israel. ⁵ But Absalom said, "Now call Hushai the Arkite, so I can hear what he says." ⁶ When Hushai came to Absalom, Absalom said to him, "This is the plan Ahithophel gave. Should we follow it? If not, tell us." ⁷ Hushai said to Absalom, "Ahithophel's advice is not good this time." ⁸ Hushai added, "You know your father and his men are strong. They are as angry as a bear that is robbed of its cubs. Your father is a skilled fighter. He won't stay all night with the army. ⁹ He is probably already hiding in a cave or some other place. If the first attack fails, people will hear the news and think, ‘Absalom's followers are losing!' ¹⁰ Then even the men who are as brave as lions will be frightened, because all the Israelites know your father is a fighter. They know his men are brave!

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Therefore I counsel,.... My advice is as follows:

that all Israel be generally gathered unto thee, from Dan even to Beersheba, as the sand that [is] by the sea for multitude: not all the inhabitants of the land, but such as are fit to bear arms, or that were soldiers, employed in military affairs, in keeping garrisons, guarding the coasts, c. even the militia of the nation, from the extreme boundary of it on the north to the extreme boundary of it on the south in such a direction lay Dan and Beersheba. This is opposed to the counsel of Ahithophel, which was only to select twelve thousand men, and send them against David at once; and this is designed chiefly to gain time, since such a collection could not be made soon, and so David would have more time to get farther off, and to prepare the better for his defence; and this advice might be the more agreeable to Absalom, as it promised a greater certainty of success through numbers, and might feed the vanity and ambition of that prince to have such a large army under him, as well as suggested that all Israel were on his side, and at his command, and might easily be gathered to him:

and that thou go to battle in thine own person; this was another part of his advice opposed to the counsel of Ahithophel, who proposed to have the command of the twelve thousand men himself, and to leave Absalom at Jerusalem; now Hushai suggests that it would be more to his interest and his honour to take command of the army himself, and go in person into the field of battle; since this would serve to animate his soldiers, when they saw their prince at the head of them, and he would have the glory of the victory, which he might insinuate hereby Ahithophel sought to deprive him of: it is in the Hebrew text, that "thy face" or "faces go to battle" m, where he might be seen in person, and have the oversight and direction of things himself; the Targum is,

"and thou shalt go at the head of us all;''

and this advice Hushai was directed to give, and which was taken, that Absalom might fall in battle.
