2 Samuel 3:5-6

Context
3:5 His sixth son was Ithream, born to David’s wife Eglah. These sons 1  were all born to David in Hebron.

Abner Defects to David’s Camp

3:6 As the war continued between the house of Saul and the house of David, Abner was becoming more influential 2  in the house of Saul.

1 tn The Hebrew text does not have “sons.”

2 tn Heb “was strengthening himself.” The statement may have a negative sense here, perhaps suggesting that Abner was overstepping the bounds of political propriety in a self-serving way.
