Gill's Notes on the Bible

But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men,.... Of the ten he brought with hin, Jeremiah 41:1; two of them being slain in this skirmish, or taken by Johanan, or they fled another way:

and went to the Ammonites; who had put him upon, or however encouraged and assisted him in, his wicked attempts; though he returned to them not according to their wishes, nor with that honour and glory he thought to have done.
