Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 11. - A righteous person. Ishbosheth was probably a weak rather than a wicked man; but David is not speaking of him generally, and, as regards Rechab and Baanah, he was quite guiltless, and their crime was not in revenge for any wrong done them.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(11) A righteous person--i.e., righteous, not at fault, so far as the matter in hand and his relation to the assassins is concerned.Take you away from the earth.--"Rather, put you away out of the land. The word is one specially used of removing evil or the guilt of evil from the land (Deuteronomy 19:13; Deuteronomy 19:19, &c.). The guilt of murder defiled the land, until expiated by the execution of the murderer. (Numbers 35:33.)"--Kirkpatrick.
