Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Hushai said to Absalom,.... Having leave to give his opinion freely:
the counsel that Ahithophel hath given [is] not good at this time; he owns that Ahithophel was a good counsellor, and that the counsel he gave was for the most part, if not always, good, but what he gave at this time was not so; the wisest of men may sometimes be mistaken. Abarbinel thinks he respects his former counsel, particularly that that was good, advising him to defile his father's bed, 2 Samuel 16:21; but this was not, for which he gives the following reasons.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
At this time - Rather, âThe counsel which Ahithophel has given this time is not good.â He contrasts it with that given before 2 Samuel 16:21, which was good. This gave an appearance of candour to his conduct, and so gave weight to his dissent. Observe the working of Davidâs prayer 2 Samuel 15:31.
