Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

But in all Israel: etc. Heb. And as Absalom there was not a beautiful man in all Israel to praise greatly, 1 Samuel 9:2, 1 Samuel 16:7, Proverbs 31:30, Matthew 23:27

from the sole: Deuteronomy 28:35, Job 2:7, Isaiah 1:6, Ephesians 5:27

Reciprocal: 1 Kings 1:6 - very Esther 1:11 - fair to look on Psalms 119:96 - I have seen Proverbs 27:21 - so Ezekiel 23:15 - all of Daniel 1:4 - in whom

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But in all Israel there was none to be so much praised as Absalom for his beauty,.... Which is observed to account in some measure for the interest he had in the affections of the people, both now and hereafter:

from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him; not any spot, freckle, wart, scurf, or scab; nothing deficient or superfluous in him; no disproportion of parts, nor any disagreeable feature; but an entire symmetry, and perfect comeliness, which made him very respectable. The Talmudists u make him to be of a gigantic stature.

u T. Bab. Niddah, fol. 24. 2.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Samuel 14:25. None to be so much praised as Absalom — It was probably his personal beauty that caused the people to interest themselves so much in his behalf; for the great mass of the public is ever caught and led by outward appearances.

There was no blemish in him. — He was perfect and regular in all his features, and in all his proportions.
