Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 20. - Araunah... saw the king. In 1 Chronicles 21:20, "saw the angel;" but the text there is apparently corrupt, the difference, moreover, in Hebrew between "king" and "angel" being very slight. The addition there of the story of Araunah's four sons hiding themselves is very lifelike and natural. For these remnants of the aborigines, though tolerated, yet held a very insecure position, as we have seen in the dealings of Saul with the Gibeonites; and the coming of the king with his retinue to the out of the way spot where Araunah was at work, no doubt filled them all with terror.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(20) Saw the king.--Not the angel, as in Chronicles, the words in Hebrew being much alike.
