Gill's Notes on the Bible

For when David was up in the morning,.... Which it is probable was very early, he not being able to sleep through the distress of mind he was in; for the words should be rendered, "and David arose in the morning" c, for, as we render them, they seem to imply as if he had no sense of his sin before the prophet came to him next mentioned; whereas it was in the night he had been under the conviction of it, and had acknowledged it, and prayed for the pardon of it; upon which the prophet was sent to acquaint him what was the will of God concerning him:

the word of the Lord came unto the prophet Gad, David's seer; with whom he had used to advise about the will of God on various occasions, though in this he had neglected to consult him; the Targum calls it the word of prophecy from the Lord:

saying; as follows.

c ויקם "et surrexit", Pagninus, Montanus, &c.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

David’s seer - Margin, references. From the latter passage it is probable that we have here Gad’s narrative.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Samuel 24:11. For when David was up — It is supposed that David's contrition arose from the reproof given by Gad, and that in the order of time the reproof came before the confession stated in the 10th verse. 2 Samuel 24:10

David's seer — A holy man of God, under the Divine influence, whom David had as a domestic chaplain.
