Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the king, and all the people that [were] with him, came weary,.... With their journey, and through grief and trouble at what they met with:

and refreshed themselves there: that is, at Bahurim, with food and rest; which revived their spirits, and put as it were new life and soul into them, as the word used signifies. Josephus y says, when David came to Jordan, he refreshed his weary men.

y Antiqu. l. 7. c. 9. sect. 4.
