Gill's Notes on the Bible
And thus said Shimei, when he cursed, come out, come out,.... Or rather, "go out, go out" t; that is, out of the nation, where he deserved not to live, as he judged, and out of the kingdom, which he had usurped, as he supposed; and the repeating the words not only denotes his vehement desire to have him gone, but the haste he should make to get out, or he was liable to be overtaken by Absalom and his forces; upbraiding him also with the hurry he was in, and the speedy flight he was making:
thou bloody man, and thou man of Belial; or wicked man; perhaps referring by these characters in the one to the murder of Uriah, and in the other to his adultery with Bathsheba; and these crimes coming fresh into David's mind hereby, might make him more mild and humble under his reproaches.
t ×¦× ×¦× "egredere, egredere", Pagninus, Montanus, &c.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Come out - Rather, âGo out,â namely, of the land, into banishment. Compare Jeremiah 29:16.
Thou bloody man - See the margin. The Lordâs word to David 1 Chronicles 22:8 was probably known to Shimei and now cast in Davidâs teeth by him, with special reference to the innocent blood of Uriah.
