Gill's Notes on the Bible

And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul, and over Jonathan his son. Composed the following elegy on account of their death, and sung it in a tune agreeable to it, he and the men that were with him.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The words lamented and lamentation must be understood in the technical sense of a funeral dirge or mournful elegy. (See similar dirges in 2 Samuel 3:33-34; and 2 Chronicles 35:25.) This and the brief stanza on the death of Abner are the only specimens preserved to us of David’s secular poetry.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Samuel 1:17. David lamented — See this lamentation, and the notes on it at the end of this chapter. 2 Samuel 1:21.
