Contextual Overview

⁷ Saul once had a slave woman named Rizpah, who was the daughter of Aiah. Ish-Bosheth said to Abner, "Why did you have sexual relations with my father's slave woman?" ⁸ Abner was very angry because of what Ish-Bosheth said, and he replied, "I have been loyal to Saul and his family and friends! I didn't hand you over to David. I am not a traitor working for Judah! But now you are saying I did something wrong with this woman! ⁹ May God help me if I don't join David! I will make sure that what the Lord promised does happen! ¹⁰ I will take the kingdom from the family of Saul and make David king of Israel and Judah, from Dan to Beersheba!" ¹¹ Ish-Bosheth couldn't say anything to Abner, because he was afraid of him. ¹² Then Abner sent messengers to ask David, "Who is going to rule the land? Make an agreement with me, and I will help you unite all Israel." ¹³ David answered, "Good! I will make an agreement with you, but I ask you one thing. I will not meet with you unless you bring Saul's daughter Michal to me." ¹⁴ Then David sent messengers to Saul's son Ish-Bosheth, saying, "Give me my wife Michal. She was promised to me, and I killed a hundred Philistines to get her." ¹⁵ So Ish-Bosheth sent men to take Michal from her husband Paltiel son of Laish. ¹⁶ Michal's husband went with her, crying as he followed her to Bahurim. But Abner said to Paltiel, "Go back home." So he went home.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Saul had a concubine, whose name [was] Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah,.... By whom he had two sons, 2 Samuel 21:8. Josephus a calls her father's name Sibathus:

and [Ishbosheth] said to Abner; though the word "Ishbosheth" is not in the text, it is rightly supplied; for no other can be supposed to speak:

wherefore hast thou gone in unto my father's concubine? and defiled her; though perhaps it was not so much the act of uncleanness that so much offended him, or the dishonour reflected on him and his family thereby, as it discovered an ambitious view in Abner to get the kingdom into his own hands, to which this was the leading step; see 1 Kings 2:22. Whether Abner was really guilty of this sin or no is not easy to determine; though, by his not absolutely denying it, it looks as if it was not merely a jealousy of Ishbosheth, or a false report made unto him; though, especially if he was not fully satisfied of it, it would have been his wisdom to have said nothing of it to him, since his continuance on the throne so much depended on him.
