Contextual Overview

²⁵ And the children of Beniamin gathered them selues together after Abner, & were on a heape, and stoode on the top of an hill. ²⁶ Then Abner called to Ioab, and said: Shall the sword deuour for euer? Knowest thou not, that it wil be bitternesse in the latter ende? Howe long then shall it be yer thou bid the people returne from folowing their brethren? ²⁷ And Ioab sayde: As God lyueth, if thou haddest not spoken, suerly euen in the morning the people had departed, euery one from persecuting his brother. ²⁸ And so Ioab blewe a trumpet, and all the people stoode still, and pursued after Israel no more, neither fought they any more. ²⁹ And Abner and his men walked all that night through the playne, & went ouer Iordane, & past through all Bethhoron, till they came to Mahanaim. ³⁰ And Ioab returned from persecuting Abner, and when he had gathered all the people together, there lacked of Dauids seruautes nineteene men, & Asahel. ³¹ But the seruauntes of Dauid had smitten of Beniamin and of Abners men, [so that] three hundred and threescore men died. ³² And they toke vp Asahel, and buried him in the sepulchre of his father, which was in Bethlehem: And Ioab and his men went all night, and the day arose to them at Hebron.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And they took up Asahel,.... From the place where he fell; that is, Joab and Abishai, his brethren, as Josephus w relates; after they had buried the dead in the field of battle, they took up him:

and buried him in the sepulchre of his father, which [was in] Bethlehem: not in the city of Bethlehem, but without it, on the south side of it; so says Fuller x,

"southward, i.e. of Bethlehem, we find Asahel's sepulchre, who was buried in the grave of his father.''

What was his father's name is not known, only his mother's name, Zeruiah, is mentioned in Scripture, a sister of David, and daughter of Jesse the Bethlehemite. Bethlehem was sixteen miles from Gibeon, according to Bunting y.

And Joab and his men went all night; not the night following the battle, but the night following the next day, after he had been to Bethlehem, and buried his brother there; wherefore, lest David should think it long before he came, he travelled all night:

and they came to Hebron at break of day; where David was, which, according to the same writer z, was twenty miles from Bethlehem.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Joab, having stopped the pursuit, passed the night with his army on the field of battle; the next morning he numbered the missing, and buried the dead; they carried the body of Asahel to Bethlehem and buried him there, and then joined David at Hebron. Hebron would be about 14 miles from Bethlehem, or about five hours’ march.
