Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when he defied Israel,.... The armies of Israel, as Goliath had done some years ago, 1 Samuel 17:10;
Jonathan the son of Shimea the brother of David slew him; this brother of David is called Shammah, 1 Samuel 16:9; and Shimma, 1 Chronicles 2:13; this son of his is another man from Jonadab his son, who was famous for his subtlety as this was for his valour, 2 Samuel 13:3. The Jews say d this was Nathan the prophet, a son of Shammah.
