Ver. 14. And they refreshed themselves there,] viz., at Bahurim, {2Sa 16:5} where yet they stayed not long: for when the messengers came thither from Hushai, David was gone, leaving Shimei to feed upon his own heart, since he could not come at David’s, and to drink up the most part of his own venom himself, as every malicious man doth.

And the king, and all the people that were with him, came weary,.... With their journey, and through grief and trouble at what they met with:
and refreshed themselves there: that is, at Bahurim, with food and rest; which revived their spirits, and put as it were new life and soul into them, as the word used signifies. Josephus (y) says, when David came to Jordan, he refreshed his weary men.

14. Weary — The word עיפים, thus rendered, Keil understands to be the name of a place, Ayephim, and argues that the word there, at the close of the verse, requires such a construction; but the versions are all against him, and the word there may easily be understood to refer indefinitely to the place where they stopped to refresh themselves. Many critics suppose that the cursing of Shimei was the occasion of Psalms 7.

14. came weary] There is no place mentioned to which there at the end of the verse can refer. It is clear from ch. 2Sa_17:18, that the halting-place was not Bahurim, but some place beyond it. We must suppose that the name of the place has fallen out of the text, or that the word for weary should be taken as a proper name to Ayêphîm. No such place is known, but it would be an appropriate name for a caravansary or resting-place for travellers.

(14) Came weary.—The sentence seems to require the mention of some place, and the clause “refreshed themselves there” to imply that a place has already been mentioned. The word for weary is, therefore, generally taken as a proper name, Ayephim, which was probably a mere caravansary.

Weary. Evidently the name of a place; for David "refreshed himself there." It was probably a caravanserai, the full name of which was, "Rest for the weary," but gradually the title was shortened down to the last word, "Weary," Hebrew Ayephim, which the Revised Version puts as a proper name in the margin.
