Gill's Notes on the Bible

Where the people of Israel were slain before the servants of David,.... That is, the people of Israel that were under Absalom, these were beaten by David's army:

and there was a great slaughter that day of twenty thousand [men]; including both those that fell in the field of battle, and that were slain in the pursuit; and this is to be understood only of Absalom's party.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Samuel 18:7. Twenty thousand men. — Whether these were slain on the field of battle, or whether they were reckoned with those slain in the wood of Ephraim, we know not.
