Tetapi seorang anak melihat mereka, lalu memberitahu Absalom. Jadi pergilah keduanya dengan segera, dan sampailah mereka ke rumah seseorang di Bahurim yang mempunyai sumur di halamannya; maka turunlah mereka ke dalamnya.
Kendatilah demikian terlihatlah juga seorang budak akan mereka itu, lalu dikabarkannya kepada Absalom. Maka keduanyapun berjalanlah dengan segeranya, lalu masuklah ke dalam rumah seorang anu di Bahurim, yang ada sebuah perigi pada halamannya, maka turunlah keduanya ke dalam perigi itu.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Nevertheless, a lad saw them, and told Absalom,.... Saw them conversing with the girl, and departing for David's army; according to Josephus o, they were some horsemen that saw them about two furlongs or a quarter mile from Jerusalem, and acquainted Absalom with it:
but they went both of them away quickly; made all the haste they could with their message to David:
and came to a man's house in Bahurim; where very probably they had been informed David had been, whither he came weary, and had refreshment, 2 Samuel 16:14; or rather, perceiving they were discovered and pursued, they turned in hither, the first place they came to, for safety:
which had a well in his court; which they observed, and was the reason of their turning in:
whither they went down; to hide themselves from their pursuers, it being dry, as sometimes wells were in the summertime: Josephus says p, a woman let them down by a rope.
o Antiqu. l. 7. c. 9. sect. 7. p Ibid.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Bahurim - See the marginal reference. They were not all Shimeis in Bahurim.
