Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Benaiah: 1 Kings 2:25, 1 Kings 2:31, 1 Kings 2:46

and fell: It appears that he slew him at the very altar. The altar was so sacred among all the people, that, in general, even the vilest wretch found safety, if he once reached it. This led to many abuses, and the perversion of public justice; and God decreed - Exodus 24:14 that the presumptuous murderer, who had taken refuge at his altar, should be dragged thence and put to death.

buried: 2 Kings 21:18, 2 Chronicles 33:20

in the: Joshua 15:61, Matthew 3:1

Reciprocal: Judges 15:12 - fall 1 Samuel 25:1 - in his house 2 Samuel 1:15 - Go near 2 Samuel 3:39 - the Lord 2 Samuel 8:18 - Benaiah 1 Kings 2:45 - the throne 1 Kings 11:21 - Hadad 1 Chronicles 11:22 - Benaiah 1 Chronicles 18:17 - Benaiah Hosea 12:14 - therefore

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up,.... To Gibeon, which was a great high place, 1 Kings 3:4;

and fell upon him, and slew him; at the altar; or, dragging him from it at some distance, drew his sword and slew him:

and he was buried in his own house in the wilderness; not in his dwelling house strictly taken, but in a garden or field adjoining to it, which house in the wilderness; not a waste place uninhabited; for, as Kimchi observes, this word sometimes signifies a place uninhabited, though not tilled, but left for pasture of cattle; and in such a place might Joab's house be, at least his country house, where he might have a farm, and fields, and cattle, as it is plain he had, 2 Samuel 14:30.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Retribution overtook Joab on the very scene (Gibeon) of the most treacherous of his murders. It was at the “great stone which is in Gibeon” that Joab killed Amasa 2 Samuel 20:8-10.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Kings 2:34. So Benaiah - went up - and slew him — It appears he slew him at the very altar. Joab must have been both old and infirm at this time, and now he bleeds for Abner, he bleeds for Amasa, and he bleeds for Uriah. The two former he murdered; of the blood of the latter he was not innocent; yet he had done the state much service, and they knew it. But he was a murderer, and vengeance would not suffer such to live.
