Contextual Overview
26 The king said to Abiathar the priest, "Go to your fields in Anathoth. Even though you deserve to die, I will not put you to death today, since you carried the ark of the Lord God in the presence of my father David and you suffered through all that my father suffered." 27 So Solomon banished Abiathar from being the Lord 's priest, and it fulfilled the Lord 's prophecy He had spoken at Shiloh against Eli's family. 28 The news reached Joab. Since he had supported Adonijah but not Absalom, Joab fled to the Lord 's tabernacle and took hold of the horns of the altar. 29 It was reported to King Solomon: "Joab has fled to the Lord 's tabernacle and is now beside the altar." Then Solomon sent Benaiah son of Jehoiada and told him, "Go and strike him down!" 30 So Benaiah went to the tabernacle and said to Joab, "This is what the king says: ‘Come out!'" But Joab said, "No, for I will die here." So Benaiah took a message back to the king, "This is what Joab said, and this is how he answered me." 31 The king said to him, "Do just as he says. Strike him down and bury him in order to remove from me and from my father's house the blood that Joab shed without just cause. 32 The Lord will bring back his own blood on his head because he struck down two men more righteous and better than he, without my father David's knowledge. With his sword, Joab murdered Abner son of Ner, commander of Israel's army, and Amasa son of Jether, commander of Judah's army. 33 Their blood will come back on Joab's head and on the head of his descendants forever, but for David, his descendants, his dynasty, and his throne, there will be peace from the Lord forever." 34 Benaiah son of Jehoiada went up, struck down Joab, and put him to death. He was buried at his house in the wilderness.
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.
