Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 12. - My bones; Hebrew, my bone and my flesh, so nearly related as to be part of my own self (Genesis 2:23).
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(12) My bones and my flesh.--More exactly, bone, as in 2Samuel 19:13 and 2Samuel 5:1. Of course the tribe of Judah, from which David sprung, was more closely connected with him by blood than any other; but the point likely to influence them was that the king recognised this relationship.
