Gill's Notes on the Bible

And when Hushai was come to Absalom,.... Into the council chamber, very probably:

Absalom spake unto him, saying, Ahithophel hath spoken after this manner; and then related the counsel he had given as before:

shall we do [after] his saying? is it right to proceed on this scheme, and carry it into execution?

if not, speak thou; thy mind freely, without any reserve, or fear of giving any offence.
