after the year etc. Heb. at the return of the year. 1Kgs 20:22, 1Kgs 20:26; 2Chr 36:10; Eccl 3:8
at the time The sacred historian seems to intimate that there was one particular time of the year to which military operations were limited; and Josephus informs us that this took place in the beginning of spring. In another part of his works he says, that as soon as spring was begun, Adad levied and led forth his army against the Hebrews. Antiochus also prepared to invade Judea at the first appearance of spring; and Vespasian marched to Antipatris at the commencement of the same season. The kings and armies of the East, says Chardin, do not march but when there is grass, and when they can encamp, which is in April. This rule, however, seems to be disregarded in modern times.

This was the greatest treachery and villany on the part of David; while Joab appears to enter as fully upon the execution of the murder, being perhaps pleased to have this opportunity of further enthralling his king, and thus increasing his own power. 1Kgs 21:8-10; Ps 19:13, Ps 52:2, Ps 62:9; Jer 9:1-4, Jer 17:9; Mic 7:3-5
