Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the men of the city went out,.... Made a sally out, as Joab expected they would, when they appeared before them at that part of the city where valiant men were:
and fought with Joab; at least with part of his army posted with Uriah:
and there fell [some] of the people of the servants of David: which made David's sin the more heinous, that several lives were lost through the stratagem he devised to procure the death of Uriah; who could not be placed in a dangerous post alone, and therefore others must be sacrificed with him, as were:
and Uriah the Hittite died also; which was the thing aimed at, and the end to be answered by this scheme.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The men of the city went out - i. e. they made a sally and attacked the troops which were blockading the city on that side, chiefly to entice them to pursue them, and so come within shot of the archers who lined the wall 2 Samuel 11:20, 2 Samuel 11:24.
There fell some of the people ... - They, too, as well as the brave and faithful Uriah, were victims of David’s cruel artifice.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Samuel 11:17. Uriah the Hitite died also. — He was led to the attack of a place defended by valiant men; and in the heat of the assault, Joab and his men retired from this brave soldier, who cheerfully gave up his life for his king and his country.
